THE WRITER'S PREFACE 

IN the four volumes which it has been my 
privilege to transcribe at the dictation of in- 
telligences who are in the wider life beyond 
earth is contained a word intended to be help- 
ful to men's thinking. It is the wider life's inter- 
pretation of the man's life in its relation to the 
Life who is Infinite, of the man's work on earth in 
its relation to the whole work of the self of man, 
and of the man's free will and purpose in their 
relation to the Omnipotent Will and Purpose of 
man's Maker. It is the interpretation of personal 
selves who were men, who have finished the experi- 
ence of man's life, and have achieved, through that 
experience, the personal worthiness which makes 
personal life ready for its emancipation from earth. 
It is the interpretation of those who remember the 
man's life, who remember what helped and what 
harmed the personal self in the man's life, who 
know what men should be and do to win the life of 
freedom. 

It is the interpretation of those who were deep 
thinkers while they were men, who carried to the 
wider life minds disciplined by much thought, who 



viii The Writer's Preface 

are no longer limited as men are to one little world, 
who, in the life of broadened horizon and broadened 
powers, comprehend as truth that which men may- 
only conjecture. It is the interpretation of those 
who have not only lived the broadest man's life, but 
are now living the wider life which comes to per- 
sonal self after earth life is finished forever. It 
is the testimony of those who assert unequivocally 
that they have told truth. It is the concurrent tes- 
timony of several witnesses, each of whom asserts, 
in his own way and in his own words, the truths 
which they all know. It is given to men that 
it may be a help to wise thinking and wise living. 
And he who reads seeking wisdom for his own 
problem of daily living and daily thinking will find 
it an unfailing aid. 

It would help a man to have faith in God, the 
Creator, confirmed. It is by this word from life 
beyond earth confirmed. It would help him to have 
faith in Christ, the Son of God, confirmed. It is 
by this word confirmed. It would help him to 
have faith that God purposes for all that He made 
now and forever. That faith is by this word 
taught. It would aid him to have faith in the 
helpfulness of worship, and thanks, and honest 
prayer confirmed. It is by this word confirmed. 

It would help him to believe in the dignity and 
worth of his personal self; to believe that Omnip- 



The Writer's Preface ix 

otent God considers his life of self worthy His 
teaching; and to believe that he, the man, is able, 
by his own wise use of his own powers, and of his 
own free choice, to fulfill the purpose for his life 
while it is on earth of Omnipotent God. That very 
belief the word intends to put into men's minds 
and hearts. 

It would help Jiim to find a meaning in his 
daily work that makes it far more than the mere 
drudgery of life on earth. That meaning he will 
find in this word. It would help him to believe 
that every hour of his work well done brings nearer, 
and every hour of his work ill done postpones, his 
higher life of personal self. It would help him 
to believe that his man's powers, his mind, his will, 
his purpose, his memory, those powers which he 
uses in his work, are the powers which his immortal 
life will forever use; that as he uses them his im- 
mortal life is using them; and that by his wise use 
of those powers his life can be made ready for 
wider thought and work in freedom from the little- 
ness and the limitations of earth. It would help 
him to believe that when he wins firm will and pur- 
pose, firm for his work whatever it may be, and 
firm to keep his personal life worthy, his immortal 
self has won firm will and purpose, and in the life 
beyond earth will hold them firm forever. These 
very truths this word teaches that men may be- 



x The Writer's Preface 

lieve and use as helps in daily life. 

It would help him to believe that, though his 
life is narrow and cramped and hedged in now, and 
may be so through all this lifetime on earth, he can 
choose to learn, in his cramped and hedged-in life, 
firm purpose that works well and keeps life worthy, 
and thus learn that which wins freedom from earth. 
This word teaches that the free life finds firm pur- 
pose when it chooses, and that firm purpose for 
both work and worthy life does win the wider life 
of self. And it does not teach that a man need be 
among the great on earth to win for his life free- 
dom from earth. 

It would help a man to believe that he is an im- 
mortal life of personal self, that he, the life of 
self, will surely have a broader personal life beyond 
earth, and that the broader life will begin when 
this body which is his now dies if he, the man, 
chooses well. The lives who have won their free- 
dom tell him that he may so believe, and in this 
word they give him the thought that will help him 
to choose well. 

It would help him to believe that, in the end, 
there is no conflict between the free will of life 
and the purpose of life's Maker; that no life fails 
in the end to overcome weakness and unworthiness ; 
that every life will finally be taught wisdom to 
choose that which accords with God's purpose. 



The Writer's Preface xi 

This is the cheerful belief which this word teaches. 

And it would help him to believe that the sooner 
he, the personal life, learns wisdom, the more lenient 
will be his teaching ; that another life of teaching on 
earth will be a penalty, if he, knowing the wise 
choice, deliberately chooses unwisely. That warn- 
ing this word gives. 

It would help him to have an abiding belief that, 
in the wider life, no longer limited in vision, in 
thought, and in purpose as man is, and with the 
wide universe instead of this little earth as work- 
ing place, his personal life will grow broader and 
fuller and wiser to immortality. This is the future 
willed by God for the life of man, and that wider 
life of growth begins when man himself, by his 
own will and purpose, has won for his life its free- 
dom. This is the vital, energizing thought which 
this word gives as truth. God's purpose for the 
life whom He made personal self is, and must be, 
fulfilled by the life's own free will. 

These are some of the helpful thoughts which the 
man who reads this word seeking aid will find. 

And, pondering these thoughts and others which 
this word suggests, one may find an ideal of the 
man's life that is worth trying to realize — a man's 
life that is firm in faith in God, in Christ, in the 
help of worship and thanks and prayer; firm in 
faith in immortality of the personal self; firm in 



xii The Writer's Preface 

faith in the wisdom and love of God's purpose; a 
life thankful that God made man free and teaches 
him the value and dignity of personal freedom; a 
life which, understanding the meaning of earth- 
work and experience, is firm to do the man's part 
in the fulfillment of God's purpose that the per- 
sonal self win wider life through its own free and 
firm use of the means which He places within its 
grasp. 

And that this word is in very truth from those 
personalities in the other world who have named 
themselves to me I believe with a firm faith. That 
the word has not come through my own will to 
think I know. That it is not written in words of 
my choosing I know. I have schooled myself to be 
the attentive scribe, whose duty is to hear and 
transcribe the thought given in the very words in 
which it is given. The thought is foreign to that 
which was my habit of thinking before I took up 
this work at Dr. Coulter's suggestion. The 
knowledge shown in the word is not knowledge 
which I possessed. The way of presenting the 
thought is not my way of speaking or writing. I 
have chosen neither the thought nor the wording, 
and I have not stated as facts the figments of my 
own imagination. I have been the scribe, and only 
the scribe. I have not sat down to my work as 
scribe in a mental haze, or under mental hallucina- 



The Writer's Preface xiii 

tion, or in hours of mental exaltation, but calmly, 
and in every way normally conscious, wishing to 
give to the words dictated to my mental hearing 
the same dispassionate but close attention that a 
good scribe should give to words orally dictated, 
and heard through the physical ear. 

And that the word thus given will help him who 
reads it thoughtfully I believe with as firm a faith. 
It has helped me more than I can tell. May God 
give it His blessing, that it may live to be a help 
for many.

FOREWORD 

THIS book on "Man, the Life Free" 
makes a threefold appeal to the critical 
student of the mysteries of religion and 
psychology. First, it is arresting by virtue 
of the dignity and seriousness of its subject matter. 
Its master theme is "the free life" — the life that 
emancipates itself, by the earnest effort of the 
spirit, from the limitations of this mundane sphere. 
It is the faith of the writer of this volume that man 
has to work out his salvation, if not "with fear and 
trembling," at least by the persistent pressure of 
his will toward the things that are of eternal worth 
and beauty. 

One of the notable teachings of this book is that 
redemption lies in the synthesis of the will of man 
and the will of the Eternal. And, indeed, I know 
of no better solution of the enigma of a human free- 
dom that must be wrought out within the auto- 
cratic operation of the sovereign will of God than 
is to be found in this volume. Its theology is 
Pauline. Its philosophy enthrones the sovereignty 
of God with the reverence that we find in the 
teachings of Augustine and Calvin. It magnifies 



xvi Foreword 

the divine will and assigns to it an absolute regency 
over the affairs of time and of humanity; and yet 
it conserves, with a loving solicitude, the freedom 
of the individual to expedite or to retard the great 
matter of his personal salvation. 

It is remarkable how meagre the literature is 
that pertains to the will in its bearing upon man's 
career, and in its relationship to the accomplish- 
ment of his destiny. There has been much writ- 
ten, in every school of theology, with the purpase 
of harmonizing, in a metaphysical synthesis, the 
divine and human wills; but our literature is sur- 
prisingly barren in treatises that emphasize the 
dynamic power of the will and how vital the will 
is, not only to the realization of our talents, but 
to the felicity of life. Apart from the series of 
volumes for which this author is indirectly respon- 
sible, I know of only two treatises that sufficiently 
accent the will as an ethical force — "The Victory 
of the Will," by Victor Charbonnel, and "The Will 
to Believe," by William James. It is a singular 
omission, for surely if anything distinguishes man 
as man it is the power and the faculty of the will. In 
the sphere of the intelligence, man differs from the 
lower organisms only in the matter of the degree 
and the extent of the operation of his psychic ener- 
gies. The dog reasons, as man reasons. The dog 
is endowed with memory, as man is endowed with 



Foreword xvii 

memory. The dog is actuated by the instinct of 
futurity, as man is actuated by the instinct of fu- 
turity. In the sphere of the emotions, man is one 
in kind with the world beneath him, and differs 
from the lowly creatures that surround him only 
in the quality and the compass of his passions and 
affections. The fidelity of a friend to a friend in 
the human world does not surpass the fidelity of 
the dog to its master. The lioness defends her 
whelps with a passion of affection and an audacity 
of courage that equal the highest fealty of the hu- 
man mother to her progeny. 

The thing that distinguishes man is the will. 
It is the will that makes or mars him. It is the 
will that crowns or discrowns him. It is in and 
through the will that he has his apotheosis or his 
dethronement. However rigidly logical the dem- 
onstrations of the school of moral fatalists may be ; 
however we may be inclined, from the point of 
view of pure intellect, to assent to its metaphysical 
conclusions, as a matter of practical living, we are 
all believers in the freedom of the human will. The 
position of every thoughtful man is the position 
taken by the great Dr. Johnson, who said, in sub- 
stance, "I may not be able to refute the arguments 
of the necessarian philosophy — the philosophy of a 
predestined conduct determined by a predestined 
character — but when all is said, I know that I am 



xviii Foreword 

free." This seems to me to be at once the doctrine 
of experience and the doctrine of common sense. 
The will is the great motive power of human life. 
It lies at the base of all intellectual culture. We 
do not find knowledge thrust upon us. We have 
to appropriate it. We have to select our environ- 
ment and also be critical of our intellectual nourish- 
ment, if we are to attain those qualities of thought, 
instinct and taste, the symmetry, the proportion 
and the charm that we associate with the accom- 
plishment of intellectual culture. Culture is will 
operating in the sphere of light. 

We are beginning to realize, also, how greatly 
the beatitude of life, its felicity and its fruitfulness 
in the matter of pleasant and agreeable experiences, 
is dependent upon our habitual volition. The joy 
of life is not, as we have been prone to think, a 
temperamental quality. It is a moral achievement 
that has its origin in a moral virtue. We create 
happiness by the magical efficacy of the will in- 
telligently applied to the problem of life, as the 
sun creates beauty in the flower through the appli- 
cation of its marvelous chemistry to air, moisture 
and soil. The kingdom of heaven is within us, and 
its inmost habitation is the faculty of the will. 

And the greatest of all of our attainments, the 
clear and certain vision of the spiritual verities, lies 
at the command of our will. We think of the 



Foreword xix 

mystical consciousness as an endowment, a gift, 
as having its roots in ancestral tendencies, and its 
inspirations in the special environment with which 
it may be surrounded — and, no doubt, tempera- 
ment, education and circumstances have their part 
to play in the spiritual as in the intellectual life — 
but as intellectual culture has its foundation chiefly 
in the will, so has the spiritual or mystical con- 
sciousness also its foundation chiefly in the will. 
The great Master of Israel tells us that the will is 
the source of spiritual vision. "If ye do His" 
(God's) "will, ye shall know the doctrine." Will 
is the way of holiness. Will is the key that un- 
locks the door that opens into "the house of many 
mansions." "Whosoever will, let him come and 
drink of the water of life freely." The cardinal 
theme of this volume is the glorification of the hu- 
man will and the power that inheres in it, through 
systematic and steady application, to achieve "the 
freed life" — the life whose element is an ethereal 
world in which vision is more immediately in con- 
tact with truth and the spirit more perfectly en 
rapport with the will of the Eternal than it is upon 
this earth plane. 

The will lies at the root of all material prosperity, 
all culture, all accomplishment, all art, all civiliza- 
tion, all spiritual vision, and the highest of all 
achievements — the beauty of holiness. And to this 



xx Foreword 

volume belongs the distinction of recognizing the 
divine value, the eternal and infinite importance of 
the highest of all human faculties — the will. 

There is yet a further virtue that stands out in 
the teaching of this unusual book. It affirms a 
universal salvation. There are no hopeless fail- 
ures in the divine process of discipline, in the divine 
education of humanity. Man may limp on his way 
to the City of God; his progress may be slow and 
involve many rebellions with sequential chastise- 
ments, but he is ultimately bound to reach his des- 
tination. There are no irreclaimables in all the vast 
host of humankind. Every child of God is sal- 
vable, and every prodigal — however far he may 
have wandered, however tardy his return — comes 
home at last. The way is more arduous for some 
than for others, but all reach the goal. When the 
day is done, "the whole pile will be complete." It is 
a noble gospel — a gospel that the Church much 
needs to lay to heart; a gospel which, when taught 
with a firm faith and a high courage by the Church, 
will do much toward restoring Christianity to its 
rightful place in the thought and reverence of 
mankind. 

The second reason why this volume is of unusual 
interest is because of its appeal to those who are 
interested in the problems of psychology. The 
writer tells us that he is merely an amanuensis. 



Foreword xxi 

The style of the book is not his style. The phi- 
losophy of the book is not his philosophy. The 
structure and the order of it lie quite beyond the 
deliberate and purposive action of his mind. He is 
the echo of a voice. The word, articulate and audi- 
ble to the inner ear, comes to him and he writes it, 
consciously, though in implicit obedience to a power 
not his own, and to an intelligence that he believes 
to be higher than himself. 

The frivolous world, or the world that interprets 
everything in the terms of matter, and that con- 
fines its faith to what it tastes and sees and feels 
and hears with the physical senses, flouts all sug- 
gestion of the intervention of higher intelligences. 
Spiritism is laughed at and scorned as an aberra- 
tion of the mind of those addicted to it. Yet the 
great masters of the world of thought have be- 
lieved in the intervention of the higher intelli- 
gences in the affairs of time. The Old and the 
New Testaments are saturated with psychical phe- 
nomena — the apparitions and voices of angelic mes- 
sengers and guardian angels. St. Paul believed 
in the actuality of these spirit messengers and me- 
diators — so did St. John, and so did Jesus of Naza- 
reth. The history of the Christian church is rich 
with the stories of the visions and the voices of its 
canonized saints. It is not difficult for one who 
has an acute spiritual consciousness to believe in 



xxii Foreword 

the intercalation of the two worlds — the worlds 
visible and invisible. They belong to each other, 
as the earth and the sky belong to each other. And 
to my mind, faith in immortality and faith in spirit 
intervention rise or fall together. If man be im- 
mortal, if his spirit survive the shock of death, it 
is entirely logical that his spirit should seek to 
come in touch with those with whom its interests, 
its loves, its devotions have been bound up on this 
earth plane. The logic of immortality is clairaudi- 
ence, clairvoyance, inspirational writing and the 
intervention, for great ethical and spiritual pur- 
poses, of the angelic hosts in the affairs of time 
and in the crucial hours of the historic and indi- 
vidual life of mankind. 

I close this brief foreword with a testimony in 
regard to the writer of this book, who has been 
a dear friend of mine for many years. I have 
known him with great intimacy and affection 
through those years, and I have known him to 
honor him with the lengthening of the days and 
the enlargement of the contact of my spirit with 
his spirit. He is a man of marked sagacity, most 
successful in the business to which he has devoted 
his talents; of rarely noble and beautiful ideals of 
life and conduct — a man of the highest and the fin- 
est integrity. I would accept his word in every situ- 
ation as a word of perfect and entire truth. And 



Foreword xxiii 

when he tells me that the message of this book has 
come to him from celestial intelligences with whom 
he is in touch and communion — that the words of 
this book are their words ; that the thoughts of this 
book are their thoughts ; that the philosophy of this 
book is their philosophy; that the morality of this 
book is their morality — I believe him with the same 
absoluteness of faith that I give to him when he 
speaks to me of the simplest affairs of life within 
the compass of my own experience and under- 
standing.

DR. COULTER'S PREFACE 

WE who wish by our thought to help 
men know that the word we have told 
is truth. We tell of man, the life, 
who fulfills by his free will the pur- 
pose of God, his Maker. The life of man wills of 
free will both on earth and forever. Man who wills 
of free will then, wins the worth which God pur- 
poses for life on earth. Will Higher, life's Maker, 
wills how life become worthy wider life. Man 
who wills of free will is life who fulfills God's pur- 
pose, but life who fulfills God's purpose wills for 
worth of free will. Will free, then, man's willed 
power, fulfills the purpose of man's Maker, God. 
Will for life worthy He who makes life free pur- 
poses that life find while it wills as man. Then 
that will man, the life, finally finds. When that 
worth which God purposes for life on earth is by 
free will won He translates life to higher life. Will 
free God wills to man, for he makes man personal 
life. When the personal worth which God wills 
that life find as man is by man's free will won, 
God translates life to wider personal life. That 
wider life wills of free will its worth. God pur- 



xxvi Dr. Coulter's Preface 

poses for life that wills of free will forever worth 
finally for His presence. The worth which man 
wills wins for life its first wider life. The will 
which man uses, life's free will, wins for life that 
worth which fits it finally for its Maker's presence. 
When life has won first wider life it finds, by the 
free will which was made firm by man, the wider 
and wider worth purposed by God when He made 
life personal self. Will free wins life's first worth, 
will free wins life's worth forever. When life free 
of will wins worth that fits it for God's presence 
will free has won the worth which God purposed 
from the willing of all. Will free, life's power, 
makes life worthy forever. 

Man who wills to-day, think well. This life 
wills firmly. Will firm that life wins as man that 
life holds firm forever. Think, O man, think well. 



I 

MAN, THE FREE LIFE 



MAN, THE FREE LIFE 

Dr. Coulter. 

WE, the lives who won wider life 
through wise use of free will and 
purpose, would help men to under- 
standing of the life which they live. 
Man is the life personal who wins this wider life. 
His free will he uses while life wills on earth. He 
wills for that life wider which God purposes for 
personal self. When he wishes his will makes life 
personal worthy the wider life, then, for he wills the 
worth of life while it is man. His firm free will he 
uses when he wishes for worth; his wise free will 
wins for personal life the worth for wider life ; man 
who wills of free will fulfills by that free will God's 
purpose. 

Will Higher made man life. His purpose man, 
the life made, fulfills. His purpose that which is 
the universe made by Him fulfills. Man wills by 
will given by Him. That which He purposes the 
life given will free by Him fulfills. How then has 
life free will? Life is willed by its Maker to will 
as He wills using free will its own. Then free will, 

3 



4 Man, The Life Free 

though free, fulfills finally the purpose of Him who 
gives it. Free will, which man uses as he wishes, 
wins the worth which Higher Will purposes for life 
of man. When man by free will wins worth, he thus 
fulfills the purpose of Him who makes life free. 
When by man's free will life wins wider life, man 
has won it. 

Man, the life free, wills for worth finally, for 
thus God purposes. But life free wills for worth 
when it chooses. Then life chooses finally to will 
for worth, thus, by free will, fulfilling God's pur- 
pose. Then life who wills weakly fulfills not His 
purpose ; that follows of necessity. The worth pur- 
posed by God life must find, for Will Higher is 
Omnipotent Will. How then may life which must 
will for worth choose to will weakly, or unworthily? 
Man, the life, is made free by Him who wills that 
life shall win worth. Man, then, wills for worth 
choosing worth finally, thus by his free will ful- 
filling the must for life on earth. 

Will free life uses while it works the man's 
work. When life, willing freely, finishes man's 
work, God frees it from the world of man's life. 
Then man, who is life, wins freedom by his will. 
His purpose who made life free is by the willed 
free will fulfilled. Man, being life immortal, wills 
for life immortal. His free will wins the life's 
worth while life wills there on earth. Man then, 



Man, the Free Life 5 

life immortal, wins by his free will the freedom 
purposed for life by God. Man wills as he wishes. 
Then when man wishes life finds worth for free- 
dom. What word for help, man of earth! Heed 
it well. 

Man who wills for life wider wills as life pur- 
posed life wider. That will which life finds free, 
that will which He who made life gives to life of 
man, fulfills the purpose for life of its Wilier. 
While life wills that which it wishes, life 
wills by willed power. While life purposes 
for itself its worth, that worth is by God 
purposed. That which life finds free pur- 
pose its own fulfills finally the higher purpose 
of life's Wilier. Man wills for life by will given 
then ; by will given he wins the worth which Higher 
Will purposes that life while it is man shall find. 
Life, though free, was made for worth, purposed 
worth found by will free, and life which wills that 
which it wishes wills, while it is man, that which 
Higher Will purposes, the worth which wins life 
wider. For life Will Higher purposes while it is. 
Man first wills for life ; man begins life of personal 
self. While that life wills for itself, while that life 
wills of free will, that free will fulfills the Pur- 
pose who made life free. When will free wins for 
life worth for life wider, life free has fulfilled God's 
purpose for it. While man, the life while it is on 



6 Man, The Life Free 

earth, wills that which he wishes he, as life, wills 
that which God purposes that life on earth shall 
will. Man then, who wills that which he wishes, 
finally wishes that which Will Higher purposes, 
and life free of will by free will fulfills the purpose 
of Him who made it free. 

Will Higher wills for life whom He made free. 
Man, the life to whom He gives free will, by that 
free power fulfills His purpose. His purpose 
which life fulfills is that life free win life wider. 
All lives win wider life. Then finally the life who 
wills using free will fulfills His purpose. But what 
has life for help to fulfill God's purpose? 
Man's will, his free will, for by that free 
power life fulfills God's purpose. Will free 
helps life then. For man this thought will help 
when he thinks. Will free helps life when the life 
chooses. Purposed to become help, well used fi- 
nally by life because He who gives free will teaches 
life wisdom, life's free will, well and wisely used 
by man, fulfills the purpose for life on earth of its 
Wilier. Help men to understand, we pray Thee, 
O God. 

Man who wills of free will has the purpose for 
his life of Higher Will to fulfill. His will, though 
free, must then, since Higher Will must be fulfilled. 
What then is man's will? Power made man's 
power as life who must. But that makes life not 



Man, the Free Life 7 

free. No, life is wholly free. Man wills, while 
his life works on earth, as life which has God's pur- 
pose to fulfill, yet wills as he wishes. Then the must 
of God's purpose will be finally fulfilled by the life 
who is free. Man is that life. Then while life is 
man it fulfills God's purpose. But free life wills 
for worth if it thus wishes. The man who wills 
for life wills for life its worth; the life who wills 
as man finally fulfills God's purpose; the will 
which is made life's power, free will, fulfills finally 
the purpose of Him who made life free. Taught 
life is while it wills on earth wisdom in use of free 
will. The taught life fulfills the purpose of its 
Maker. Man wills for worth finally ; rather the life 
while it is man finally wills, using free will always, 
the worth which it must by the purpose of its 
Maker. Man wills as life. Life frees itself then 
from man when it wills for worth, choosing for 
itself that will. We who live the wider life thus 
won it. Think, man who is free, think. 

Will Higher made life for earth man. His will 
the life obeys using the free will which He makes 
life's power. His will life fulfills by the way He 
purposes, by wise use of the free will with which 
He endows life. Man, who has from Him life, 
wills by the will He gives. Life willed worth finds 
worth itself, using the will He gives. Life willed 
wider life wins that wider life by its free will. Man 



8 Man, The Life Free 

who wills for life has the will which God makes 
life's will. Thus man wills for life with will be- 
longing to life itself. Then this man who wills 
using life's free will has the must of life to fulfill? 
No, this man wills for that which he wishes. 
Whether for worth or unworthiness he chooses for 
himself. Then will which God makes life's free 
power man may use not well. That power is willed 
to life as free power ; life wills always as it wishes ; 
yet life which has for must to fulfill God's will 
wins finally the worth which it must win, for He 
who wills free will teaches free will. Have we 
made you understand, Man who reads? 

Man, who lives his life willing for that which he 
wishes, has his free will by the purpose of his 
Maker. Then the purpose for man of his Maker 
is to be fulfilled by man's free will. But life 
free of will wills weakly perhaps. Would that 
fulfill the purpose of life's Maker? That weak 
use of the will which God gives man himself 
chooses. Will free may be weakly used then, yet 
finally life of man fulfill the purpose for it of its 
Maker? Yes, life wills for wider life when man 
has learned the lesson which God purposes that 
man shall learn, the wise use of free will. But 
this man wills for unworthiness while he thus wishes. 
This man is but part of life immortal. Then this 
man may will unworthily yet life immortal will 



Man, the Free Life 9 

for worth finally. That thought we tell for help. 
You who know that will is free win for life the 
wider life when by your free will you make life 
worthy. You, as life, will fulfill God's purpose. 
Why not will for worth this time of life on earth? 
Think what this tells — man who wills for worth 
frees life immortal from earth. Have the words 
helped you, man who lives earth life? Think well, 
O man, think well. 

Man, the life free, wills his worth when he wishes ; 
but life, though made free, has God's purpose to 
fulfill. Man, the life free, wins his worth by will 
his own; yet life owns that power which man uses 
for his worth. Man, the life free, wins his worth 
through his wise use of his work and life of man; 
but his work, his life, are the work and life of per- 
sonal self on earth. Man, the life free, has for 
help in his winning the worth purposed by his 
Maker, God, the free power of personal self; but 
that power, though free, finally fulfills the purpose 
of God. While man wills on earth his power is 
free; while life wills, whether there on earth or 
here in the wider life, the power, will, is free; yet 
all life wins the worth purposed by God. Will 
free, then, fulfills for life God's purpose. Will 
free wins for life the wider, fuller life purposed 
when by Will Higher life was made. Think, who 
use now that free power. By wise use, which man 



10 Man, The Life Free 

himself chooses, for the life was made free, you 
win the worth for wider life. Think, man of free 
will, think. 

Man, the free life, fulfills God's purpose, but 
by his free choice he makes his life worthy. Man, the 
free life, wins by his will the higher life purposed 
by God. For life free man wills, yet that life is 
by Higher Purpose bound. The life free has for 
must to will that worth which wins higher life. 
Man, the life free, has for his must to win freedom 
for his life. Man, the life free, by his wise use of 
his free will fulfills God's purpose that his life win 
higher life. Man who has life to free, what use 
do you make of your free will? Your life must 
win worth, for God thus purposes. You are free 
to choose when this life fulfills God's purpose. The 
wise life chooses quickly, the unwise life chooses 
late; but that which God purposes life free fulfills 
finally. That higher life which God purposes will 
be won by life free. Choose then this time of life 
on earth, man who has free life. Your wise choice 
wins the higher, happier life of freedom. Think 
well, O man. 

Will Higher made life free; then man, who is 
life for earth, is free. Will Higher wills that life 
win by free will its worth for wider life ; then man 
wills the worth for life wider than earth. When 
will free wins the worth which Higher Will pur- 



Man, the Free Life 11 

poses for life on earth that will free fulfills the 
purpose of life's Maker. When life free wins the 
worth which Higher Will purposes, that worth 
frees life from earth. When man, then, wills that 
his life be worthy, he thus wins for his life immortal 
the wider life, freed from man's weakness, full of 
firm purpose for life worthy, willing then while 
it lasts for its worth firmly. What hope this gives 
to men! What help this word will be depends on 
the man himself. Think, O man, think well. 

By what purpose would life win freedom then? 
By man's free purpose well and firmly used for 
life worthy. You who read, will for life firmly, 
purpose firmly for life worthy, for thus your free 
will and purpose make your life worthy wider fuller 
life. Then this man wins freedom for his life if 
he thus wishes. 

Man who wills of free will has the purpose of 
his Maker to fulfill. Then, by free will man wins 
the worth of life which his Maker purposes. When 
by free will man wins that worth which fits life 
for freedom God frees the life from earth and man. 
What happy thought this for men! This thought 
will help when weak purpose threatens to harm life. 
When by free will man makes his life worthy his 
free will wins for life freedom from earth forever. 
Think, man who wills to-day. Wise free will wins 
for life freedom. That wise free will God purposes 



12 Man, The Life Free 

that life find, yet life finds it by man's free choice. 
Think well, O man. 

Man, the free life personal who has for will the 
will of life itself, wills that life immortal find worth 
for the wider life which God purposes for life 
immortal. Man, the free life, wills that immortal 
life win this happy life of freedom by willing that 
man be worthy. What for life whom He made 
wills its Maker, God? That will be free forever; 
that will free of life fulfill His purpose for life; 
that man who wills for life personal win by his 
life worthy the wider life which personal self is 
purposed by God. When the life wills as God 
wills He frees that life from earth. When free 
will becomes the help for life which He purposes 
that it become life wins freedom and this happy 
life. Think, man who wills as life, think well. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, was when life of 
man was not. His purpose was, when life of man 
was willed, formed for that life. His will that 
life has for its must to obey. His will that life 
finally fulfills with the power, free will, which He 
gives to that life. Man who wills as he pleases is 
life that must fulfill the purpose of Higher Will. 
Man who works as he wishes is life that finally is 
taught by work. The purpose of Higher Will 
life fulfills while it is man; while life is it fulfills 
the purpose of its Maker. Man who lives the weak 



Man, the Free Life 13 

life of earth is life purposed wider life won by his 
free will. Man, the life of little worth until it is 
taught by Higher Purpose, is life worthy finally 
His presence. God wills for the life that He made 
that worth. That worth, though the worth of free 
life, finally makes the life worthy its Maker's 
presence. We who live the wider life know that 
we tell truth. Hear and heed the word, men of 
earth. 

Bishop Wilberforce. 

Man who lives his earth life willing for life wider 
has for help the free will that Will Higher makes 
his power. But man wills not always well. His 
life wills as he wills. He wins the life wider which 
Higher Will purposes for personal self wisely 
using his own free will. Then life who finds worth 
for wider life using free will fulfills thus the pur- 
pose of Will Higher. Man, the life, wins wider 
life, not man the physical. What food for thought 
here, O men! Wise the man who heeds our word. 
His free will he will then use well, and his life 
will find the wider life. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, purposes that free 
will made man's power win for life of man the 
freedom willed for life personal when life was 
willed into being. Then man wills for life who 
must find worth, but when life finds worth the man 



14 Man, The Life Free 

chooses, for he is life free. Then man who, freely 
willing, wins the worth which Will Higher pur- 
poses for life on earth fulfills His purpose. Would 
the life who fails to win worth fail to fulfill the will 
of its Maker? For the time it fails, but finally it 
wills well. God purposes; the life, freely willing, 
fulfills His purpose. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes while life 
is for that life. His purpose that life fulfills using 
free will which He makes that life's power. His 
purpose that life fulfills, then, while it is man. 
Though life finds little worth in this man, finally 
it finds worth. Though this man, free in will for 
he is thus made, will weakly or wickedly, life of 
man, life immortal, wills for worth finally. No 
life wills weakly for always. All lives win the life 
wider. The will of life's Maker each life fulfills 
finally. Happy thought for men who work and 
live the little life of earth. Think what you must 
be and will, man who wishes wider life. Your own 
free will must make your life worthy freedom. 
Think for life, then, man of free will. Now you 
may find the firm will which wins freedom. Think 
well. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, wills for life that 
by free will it fulfill His purpose. But free will 
has then the must of God's purpose to fulfill. Will 
free is bound then? What would bound will mean? 



Man, the Free Life 15 

Forced worth, which men know is impossible 
thought. Will free fulfills the purpose of God 
when free life chooses. When life willed free will 
wins by free will worth, it fulfills the purpose 
which by God's will it must. For that worth which 
God purposes He permits life to will when it 
chooses, but teaches the life wise use of free will. 
Then the life taught fulfills His purpose who made 
it free. Man, the life, wills when he wishes the 
worth which life free must finally will. God pur- 
poses that free life win the wider life. His purpose 
the free life fulfills. Man wills for worth as life 
who finally learns by God's teaching wise use of 
the will made free. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, wills for life while 
it is man that by free will its own it win the 
worth that frees life from earth. His will life 
finally fulfills using free will. That life who, firmly 
willing, wins the purposed worth finds higher life. 
Then for itself life wins the higher life of freedom. 
What help for men this thought brings! Worth 
found by man's own free will wins for life immortal 
the higher life of freedom. Think, man of free 
will, think. 

Will free, life's free power, wins that worth of 
life which God purposes. While life is man, when 
life has won the higher life, will free must win its 
worth ; God thus wills. Life made free fulfills His 



16 Man, The Life Free 

purpose. Man, the life of free will, whose life is 
made worthy by his own use of will free, works for 
teaching the work given to life on earth. Then 
that work teaches life, for man is life. But the life 
who wills freely may will to work weakly, may will 
to live weakly. Then the work which Purpose 
Higher makes teaching will but teach weakness, 
and weak life wins not freedom. The teaching of 
life in man will be help if man himself thus chooses, 
for he is life free. When then does life take 
the teaching which by God's purpose fits it 
for higher life? When the man chooses. But 
when man chooses weakness does work teach? 
Yes, that work teaches weak will, weak pur- 
pose. Why has life free will and purpose? Why 
was life made free? You know, who have read 
our word. Think then, for you must yourself find 
the firm free will, the firm purpose by which life 
wins the higher life. 

Will Higher made life man for earth. Will 
Higher places life on earth there to fulfill His 
purpose. Will Higher wills for the life whom He 
made man that by free will that life find the worth 
which He purposes. While life is man He pur- 
poses that it win by free will the worth for higher 
life. Won by life's free will used by man who is 
life on earth will be the freedom purposed for life 
by Higher Will. Self of man, his life personal, 



Man, the Free Life IT 

wins that higher life ; self of man is free ; then that 
higher life which God purposes for life of self will 
be by the personal free will won. Man, the free 
life personal, wins by his free will the higher life 
purposed for self immortal by God. 

Will Higher wills that life in man find by free 
will the worth by which that life is made worthy 
wider life. Then think, who would win freedom. 
This man wins the worth for freedom when he thus 
wishes. Life free fulfills God's purpose. Man 
who wills this time of life on earth, will firmly that 
your life be worthy. Then you win for your life 
immortal wider life. 

Will Higher purposes that while life is man it 
win worth for higher life. That life win that worth 
using free will He purposes. That free life win 
wider life He purposes. Man, the life, fulfills, as 
He wills, His purpose. Free though man is, free 
though his will is, nevertheless man, the life, fulfills 
His purpose. Man who wills freely wins by his 
free will that worth which life's Maker purposes 
for life on earth. Yet man knows that his will is 
wholly free. Work for life then firmly, man who 
has life to free. Your firm purpose well used for 
life worthy will win for the life immortal wider, 
fuller life. 

Will for life worthy life finds on earth. Man 
who wills by free will finally wills as the Higher 



18 Man, The Life Free 

Will purposes. What from this the helpful 
thought? This — when life free to will as it wishes 
wills for worth that life fulfills the purpose of God. 
May a life while it wills where life works but part of 
life's work become worthy wider life ? Yes, for life 
fulfills God's purpose there where it is man. Free 
to will, free always to will as it wishes, life neverthe- 
less wills finally as God purposes. While it is man 
will for life worthy is found. While it works as 
man firm purpose is found. Man, then, who wills 
knowing his will is free, can will for life worthy, 
and, thus willing, wins for life immortal the wider 
life purposed from the willing of all. 

Will Higher, whose purpose that which He made 
fulfills, made life for earth man, willed that life 
use for work free will, willed that life use for worth 
also free will. Each life wills as it pleases; no life 
but has free will ; and by free will the life for whom 
God purposes worth finds that worth. Finally each 
life wills as Higher Will purposes ; finally life for 
whom wider, fuller life is by Will Higher purposed 
wins by its own free will the worth for wider, 
fuller life. Man free in will, life free in will, ful- 
fills finally the purpose of Him who makes life 
free. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes that while 
on earth life find the worth for higher, fuller life. 
That purpose which life fulfills is the purpose of 



Man, the Free Life 19 

life's Maker. Then life fulfills that purpose surely. 
Yet He who purposes the life higher wills that life 
be free. Then life free fulfills His purpose. But 
for that life who fails to purpose as He wills He 
purposes penalty of man's life again. Is that pen- 
alty? Yes. Well life finally purposes as life of 
man, but for man's life of work again it purposes 
if it weakly or unworthily uses the free will which 
He who gives it means for help. Think wisely then, 
man who may this time of life on earth find the 
worth for freedom. Would you wish the life of 
work on earth again? Would you think it well to 
incur that penalty? Think wisely, you who may 
free life if thus you yourself will. 

Will Higher wills for life freedom. His pur- 
pose frees life from earth finally. His will life ful- 
fills then by free will, for He makes life free. 
When by free will life finds the worth which He 
purposes that life in man find, He frees that life 
from man. From weak will then life is freed, from 
weak purpose, from the littleness which makes man 
unworthy. What help for men here! But man 
wills for himself that his life be worthy. Remember 
that, O man who has life to free, remember that al- 
ways. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, whose purpose life 
fulfills, wills for life free will its own. Then by 
that free will life fulfills the higher purpose of its 



20 Man, The Life Free 

Maker. What food for thought there for men! 
Life who is free fulfills God's purpose. Then the 
life who wills in this man to-day will fulfill God's 
purpose, yet this life wills for worth when the man 
thus wishes. How then would life be free? Why 
have we worked, O men? That you understand 
that thought. Will free, which life when it thus 
wishes uses for worth, finally is well and wisely used 
by life in man. Then this man who is life to-day 
may will for life the worth which He who makes 
life free purposes. This man, then, wills if thus 
he wishes that worth by which life immortal wins 
freedom. Think well, you who will for life, think 
well. 

Power of life willed free will is. No life per- 
sonal would by other than free power will. Man 
who is free by his free will fulfills the purpose of 
his Maker. Then will free, but bound, is the power 
of life. Why that thought? Would life find worth 
were it forced to will worth? Would life be not 
free because it fulfills His purpose who wills it to 
be life? Would life free win worth were it forced 
to will otherwise than by will free? Forced worth 
would be impossible thought. For life Will Higher 
purposes will for life worthy. His purpose life ful- 
fills. Man who is wholly free wins finally the worth 
which He who made him free purposes. Self of 
man, life personal, wins wider life. Life free in 



Man, the Free Life 21 

will, man's personal self, fulfills the purpose of 
God, using free personal will. 

Miltiades. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 
made life for earth man. He wills to that life free 
will; He wills that life fulfill His purpose using 
free will. All life wins the life wider which He 
purposes. Though life will weakly, the purpose of 
Him who made life is unchanged. Will free may 
be weakly used, for He made life free, but that free 
will finally fulfills His purpose. Man wills as he 
chooses. Whether he wills for life worthy or for 
life unworthy he chooses himself. But man, as life, 
fulfills surely the purpose of his Maker, God. 

The free will which man has, life's free will, wins 
life's worth while life is on earth. Then that free 
will life uses while the worth for wider life is won. 
Will free, life's power, man has; will free makes 
his life worthy wider life ; by will free life wins that 
better, wider life purposed by God when He made 
life. By will free life, both while it is man and 
forever, wins its worth. Man uses jthat power 
while he wins for life its first wider life. Then, 
man who wills for life, think well. 

Will Higher, whose purpose that which He made 
fulfills, was the Wilier of life. Life which He 
willed fulfills His purpose. But that life was 



22 Man, The Life Free 

willed free will its own. Then life fulfills His pur- 
pose using its own willed free will. But free will 
is bound then. No, will free man has, and by will 
free he, as life, fulfills God's purpose. But life 
which uses free will has God's teaching. Then 
when life is by God taught wise use of free will, 
it by free will fulfills His purpose. Wise free will 
man learns; wise free will wins for life its worth. 
God wills for life wider life won by its own free 
will. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 
wills for life while it wills as man on earth that by 
its own free will life win the worth which fits it for 
higher life. When life, freely willing, wins that 
worth which He purposes, it thus fulfills His pur- 
pose. What has life for help while it fulfills His 
purpose? What help gives He to the life whom 
He made free? His teaching He gives life. That 
teaching which life finds on earth finally makes it 
wise, for man's life of work teaches firm purpose. 
That life win freedom by firm purpose its own, He 
wills ; that life will for life worthy while it is man, 
He wills. His purpose life fulfills willing its worth 
by free choice. Man who is life where life first 
wills, on earth, wins by his free will the worth that 
frees life from earth. When for life worthy man 
wills, life thus wills. Man then, free to will for 
life worthy or unworthy, finally wills for life wor- 



Man, the Free Life 23 

thy, and the free will which He who made life gives 
fulfills finally His purpose. What for life pur- 
poses He? Worth for higher life won of free will. 
Heed the word, man who is life to-day. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life that He 
made, was when life made by Him was not. His 
will placed life on earth, there to find the worth 
for higher, fuller life. When life was by Will 
Higher made, that worth was by Will Higher pur- 
posed. His purpose who made life will be by life 
fulfilled. When by the free will made life's power 
that life wins the worth which He purposes, Will 
Higher frees that life from earth. Won then by 
the free will which God made life's power will be 
the higher life purposed by Him. When free life, 
willing by free will, wins the purposed worth, Will 
Higher translates that life to freedom. Won by 
man's free will, that power willed for his use while 
he is life on earth, will be the wider life purposed 
by God ; yet when man wills that worth he himself 
chooses, for he is life made free. When life free 
of will wins the worth for life higher man has him- 
self won that worth. Think, who have life im- 
mortal, think wisely. 

Will for life worthy is wise free will. All life 
finds that will finally, yet man finds that will when 
he wishes, for God made man free. Will free ful- 
fills for man the purpose of his Maker; will free 



24 Man, The Life Free 

fulfills for life the purpose of its Maker. Each 
life while it wills as man wins finally the will which 
makes life worthy. Will for life worthy each man 
who wills for life this day may find. Will free used 
wisely wins freedom, purpose firm, life wider. 
Think, then, man who wills for life to-day. You 
will the worth that wins freedom when you thus 
wish. Think well, O man! 

Man, the life of free will, man the life free to 
will worth or unworthiness as he wishes, is yet life 
for whom God purposes. That he win his worth 
himself using his free will, that he make life im- 
mortal worthy the wider life of freedom, He who 
made man free purposes. His purpose life fulfills 
while it is man. Though this man will unworthily, 
though many men who will for the one life on earth 
will unworthily, the life finally fulfills God's pur- 
pose. When life fulfills the purpose of its Maker, 
the man chooses. Then this man may will the 
worth which brings to life immortal its wider, fuller 
life. Think, man who is free, think well. God's 
purpose this man may fulfill if this man thus wishes. 
Then, you who would win the life wider, will firmly 
that your man's life be worthy. Then this man 
fulfills God's purpose. Free life man is; for life 
worthy life finally purposes; when depends on 
man's own choice. Think then, man who may win 
for life its freedom if thus you wish, think well. 



Man, the Free Life 25 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes that life's 
free will fulfill His purpose for life which He 
willed into being. Man, who is life on earth, who 
wills for life using that free will which God makes 
his power, wills that which fulfills God's purpose 
finally. What purpose has life made ? Willed free 
purpose. What must life for whom God purposes 
worth for wider life be then? Worthy through its 
free purpose, worthy the life wider there where it 
lives as man. Then life who wills of free will wins 
thus the wider life which He purposes who makes 
life free. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 
made life for earth man. His purpose that life ful- 
fills while it is man, while it is. Man who wills for 
life on earth wills that life find wider life using 
the will which Higher Purpose gives. When life 
of man wills for that worth which by God's purpose 
life finds on earth He translates that life to wider, 
fuller, happier life. Won by life who is man for 
earth is the higher life purposed by Will Higher. 
From worth to worth life rises when God has freed 
it from earth. Happy life, worthy life, fuller life 
is won by the free will of man on earth. Think, who 
live the man's life, think well. 

Man who wills for worth when thus he wishes 
is life who must thus will. Man who is free then, 
is life who must, While life is man it fulfills the 



26 Man, The Life Free 

purpose of Him who made it free. Will free wins 
for life the worth which it has by the purpose of 
its Maker to win. Will for life worthy is will 
taught by life of man, for that life is, by God's 
purpose, teaching for life itself. Then taught will 
wins for life the worth which life must find. Worth 
purposed by God life finds willing freely. Man 
wills for worth when he thus wishes. His free will, 
then, wins the worth which by God's purpose life 
finds on earth. Life free fulfills the purpose of 
Him who made it free. Well life wills finally, 
taught by the work and the life on earth. Well 
then life wills finally in man, for while life works 
on earth it is man. Free life fulfills its must finally, 
taught by the purpose of its Maker wisdom. Free 
life wins the wider life, for that purpose which life 
fulfills is the purpose of Omnipotent God. Well 
life wills when taught as God purposes it be taught. 
Well man wills when life is taught wise use of the 
willed free will. 

Will Higher made life for earth man. He wills 
for that life whom He made far wider worth than 
life finds on earth. He wills for life worth far 
greater than that which man finds. But that wider 
worth, as the worth of man, is won by free will. 
God made life free; His purpose life free fulfills 
using the will which He makes life's free power, 
will of personal self. When by will free life wins 



Man, the Free Life 27 

that worth which He purposes life thus fulfills His 
will. Man who is life, think. Wise you may make 
your will this time of life on earth. Life wins wider 
life if you make your life worthy. Life wins man's 
life again if you fail to make your life worthy. 
Think well, man who wills for life, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, who wills for each 
life whom He made forever, wills for this life who 
is man to-day. Will Higher, who wills for the life 
wider, fuller life, wills for this life then wider life. 
But He wills for life wider life won by free pur- 
pose. Then this life wins its wider life using its own 
free purpose. Think what I tell you, man who is 
life, think. This man who wills, this life then who 
wills this time on earth, may win that higher life 
which God purposes by this man's free purpose. 
When life who wills using free purpose makes itself 
worthy God frees it from earth. Then this man 
who wills for life this time wins for his life of per- 
sonal self the higher life of freedom if this man thus 
purposes. Think well, O man, think well.

LIFE PERSONAL 



LIFE PERSONAL 

Dr. Coulter. 

WILL Higher, life's Maker, purposes 
that life personal win wider life. 
Man is life personal, but man the 
physical is made for earth. It is 
man, the life of personal self, who wins higher life. 
Man the life of self, man the life of immortal per- 
sonal self, wins the wider life. Man, the wilier of 
life's worth on earth, that worth which brings to life 
its first wider life, wins that worth by his personal 
free will. Life willed wider life wins the worth for 
wider life while it is man on earth. Man who reads, 
think well. What makes life personal worthy? Its 
own free will. Work that life win personal worth 
then, man who would live wider life. Think what 
we tell — man who is free wins by his own free will 
that worth which brings for personal self wider, 
fuller life. 

Worth of life man finds by wise use of his own 
powers, mind, will, purpose and memory. Those 
powers, made his powers by his Maker, win finally 

31 



32 Man, The Life Free 

the worth of life which God purposes. They win 
for man personal worth, that personal worth of 
life in man which wins higher life for his immortal 
self. Man who wills and purposes as he pleases 
is life who has God's purpose to fulfill. The Wilier 
of life, man's Maker, places that life on earth, there 
to find wisdom in use of the powers which man uses 
as life immortal. Will free, purpose free, life uses 
to win that worth which God purposes. While life 
is man it wins worth for life higher than that of 
earth; while life is man it wins that worth which 
wins higher life of freedom. Well must the man 
will, well must he purpose, to win that higher life. 
When by wise use of the powers willed to man as 
life personal man makes himself worthy, his life 
of personal self wins the higher life, freed from 
earth, which God purposed when He willed life into 
being. 

Will Higher, whose purpose life fulfills, made 
life personal self. The will of life personal must 
be free. For life worthy life personal wills itself 
then. That life personal win its worth for higher 
life using its own free will Will Higher purposes. 
Man, who wills for life while life is on earth, wills 
for life worthy when he thus wishes. Man, per- 
sonal life free of will, works the work for life on 
earth purposed by Will Higher. Work purposed 
to be teaching for life man does using free will. 



Life Personal 33 

That work teaches life well. That will which by 
God's purpose wins life's worth forever man uses 
for the life of earth. When by free will its own 
life attains that worth which He who made life per- 
sonal self wills, life fulfills God's purpose. Man, 
life free, wins by free will the life wider. 

Think well, man who is life immortal. We tell 
this for help. Think well, O man. 

Man, who is life made, wills using the free will 
of life personal. That life who must win worth for 
wider life win that worth by its own free will God 
purposes ; that life made by Him fulfill His will as 
He purposes God wills ; none may for always evade 
the will of life's Maker; all lives win wider life. 
Then this life who is man to-day wins that higher 
life, but this life wins it willing for its worth by 
free will. Man who wills for life, think. When 
will is well and wisely used the life who wills as this 
man wins wider life. Think well, O man. 

Man, life personal, wills for life worthy when 
thus he wishes. Man, life willed worth by higher 
will of life's Maker, finds that worth using life's 
free will. Then life by man's use of free will wins 
the worth purposed for life on earth. Will free 
makes life worthy for life of earth and forever. 
Will free, man's free power, wins for life personal, 
life immortal, the wider life purposed by God when 
He made life. By will free life wins Heaven. 



34 Man, The Life Free 

Wide life becomes when freed from earth, high the 
worth it finds by God's purpose. Man, using his 
own free will, makes life personal, life immortal, 
worthy the higher life purposed by God. Will free, 
man's will used for life worthy firmly, wins life 
higher. Man wills that life immortal win higher 
life then. Think, O man who this day wills for 
life, think well. 

He who wills for life wills for life well. He wills 
for life free will its own; He wills for life worth 
found through free will; He makes life personal 
that it win its worth itself. That word we tell for 
help. Man who wills for his own life wills that by 
his life worthy personal self immortal find worth for 
higher life. That worth which life finds by man's 
will wins for life personal the wider, fuller life pur- 
posed by God. Willed life fulfills the will of its 
Maker by its free will. Made free, purposed life 
higher, personal life of man, immortal self, wins by 
its own free will that higher life which Will Higher 
purposes. All that He made fulfills His purpose. 
Will free life has by His will ; will free fulfills His 
purpose. 

Man is life personal. His worth then, being the 
worth of life personal, life immortal, wins for life 
personal its wider life. What will wins the wider 
life? Man's will well and firmly used. What pur- 
pose helps both man and life wider? Purpose kept 



Life Personal 35 

firm, firm for both work well finished and for life 
worthy. Man who is life, think. Why fail in will 
or purpose ? They win, if well and firmly used, the 
wider personal life purposed by life's Maker. Think 
then well, O man. 

Miltiades. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes for life 
while it is. While life is man on earth He purposes 
for it; when life has found wider life He purposes 
for it; yet He made life free personal self. That 
wider life which He purposes for man's life is per- 
sonal wider life. For that life man wills on earth 
finally. Work for that life, man who wills as life 
immortal, work to find worth personal. Man who 
is free wills his own personal worth. Wider life 
for personal self God purposes, yet life is free. 
Then that wider life purposed by God must be 
won by the life's own free will and purpose. Think 
well, you who have life to free, think well. 

The power of life personal, free will, man has. 
While he works the work purposed for life on earth 
that free power he uses. Then by free will his own 
man works that work which teaches life. Well life 
learns to will finally, but will free may be weakly 
used, for life wills for work as it wishes. Then 
that power which man has, his personal free will, 
finishes well or not the work purposed for life on 



36 Man, The Life Free 

earth. Well that work must be finished; thus 
Higher Purpose wills. Then what work teaches 
life free ? The work finished well ; that work helps 
life to win firm purpose, and life personal, who wills 
well for work when it thus wishes, finally learns 
that which God purposes, firm use of free personal 
will. The purpose of Him who makes life free free 
will of life fulfills. 

Man, the life willed, was willed free will his own. 
But for man the free will must win his worth. Will 
Higher purposes for life worth found of free will. 
God wills that life free win the wider life. Per- 
sonal life wills for worth using free will. Personal 
life wins the wider life. When free will is well and 
firmly used for worth personal life wins the freedom 
from earth which God purposes. Then the man 
who is life to-day may will that worth which brings 
wider life. His free will he may use well, and thus 
this life may, if this man thus chooses, by this man's 
free will win wider personal life. We tell this for 
help. Think well, man who wills for life to-day. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life higher 
life, and that life higher be won by free will that 
He gives. Man, the life of personal self, who wills 
as he pleases worth or unworthiness, is yet life which 
fulfills the purpose of Higher Will. All wills 
finally fulfill His will. No life made wills unwor- 
thily for always. Weak though the life be while it 



Life Personal ' 37 

is this man, worthy though it be while it is this man, 
its weakness and its worthiness are its own free 
choice. But finally each life wills worthily. Life 
free wins higher life; will free wins the worth for 
higher life. Finally weak will life learns to make 
firm will, finally life unworthy wills to be life wor- 
thy. Thus man, who wills for his life whether it 
win life higher or work man's work once more, wills 
either because he is free; but the life who is man 
finally wills for life higher. Would this man wish 
life higher, or work on earth again? Think which 
to choose, man who wills for life, think wisely to- 
day. 

Will Higher, who purposes for that which He 
made forever, purposes that life find while it is 
man worth for life higher. Then what has life to 
be to fulfill His purpose? Worthy by its own free 
purpose. God makes life free; His purpose life 
fulfills using free purpose. But when life weakly 
uses that power which He who wills for life pur- 
poses for help, that life wins but man's life of 
work again. Life wills well finally, for thus its 
Maker wills; yet free life wills weakly perhaps. 
Then life has penalty, penalty till will is made firm 
for work and for life worthy. Would the man 
who wills for life to-day wish that penalty? Why 
let life weakly purpose, man who is free? When 
the man who is life purposes firmly his life will win 



38 Man, The Life Free 

freedom. Think wisely, you who have life to free. 

Will Higher, who wills for life while it is, wills 
for life while it is man that it find worth for higher 
life than that of earth. His will all life fulfills. Yet 
life free may will for unworthiness, and thus find 
but worth for earth life again. That God permits, 
since he made life free. But worth for higher life 
will be found while life is man, will for life worthy 
life will find, will firm for worth life will find. That 
which God purposes is worth won by life's own free 
will. Man who is life free, think. When the man 
wishes that worth is found. Think then wisely, O 
man. 

Will Higher, whose purpose that which He made 
fulfills, wills that life for earth be man, wills that 
will of life be free, wills that by that free power 
life fulfill His purpose, wills for life higher life 
won of life's free choice. Then, though the life 
will unworthily for the life of this man, finally life 
who fulfills the purpose of its Maker wills for life 
worthy. All life thus wills finally; not one but 
finally finds worth for higher life. For that life 
worthy life wills by free will. Then this life in 
man finds worth for higher life finally, but finds it 
by free will. You who are life this time on 
earth win that worth if thus you choose. Think, 
then, what use of free will you will make. The 
life who wills well finds higher life, the life who 



Life Personal 89 

wills unworthily finds life on earth again. Which 
would you wish ? You will for that which you wish. 
Free you are made; by free will life must win the 
life higher. Man who wills for life to-day, think. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, wills that life while 
it is man win the worth for life higher. What for 
life purposes the man who is life to-day? Will for 
life worthy he finds if thus he wishes. Will the life 
win this time the higher life, or will it win man's 
life once more? This life wills as this man wills; 
life worthy it finds if this man thus wills. Your 
life, man of earth, it is who finds higher life or 
man's life of work again by your will free. Think 
then well, O man. 

Will Higher wills for life while it prepares on 
earth for wider life. His will man fulfills when 
he works well for life; His purpose man fulfills 
when he makes life worthy. Wider life purposed 
by God is won then by man who wills of free will. 
Self man was made, personal self. Each life pur- 
poses for its worth itself; each life wills for that 
worth which God purposes using its own free will; 
then each life fulfills the higher purpose when thus 
it chooses. But the free life for whom Higher 
Will purposes worth must win that worth. Will 
free man has, purpose free. When his free will, 
his free purpose, make life worthy life fulfills God's 
will for life on earth. Think what you read, man 



40 Man, The Life Free 

who is free. By your will free, by your free pur- 
pose, you can win for life the wider life of freedom. 
Choose well, man who has life to free, choose well. 
Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes while life is 
for that life. What purposes He for life? Worth 
won by free will ; worth that fits life for wider and 
wider life won by free will. Help this work that 
we do for help with Thy blessing, we pray Thee, O 
God.

MAN, WORKER ON EARTH FOR LIFE 
IMMORTAL 



MAN, WORKER ON EARTH FOR LIFE IMMORTAL 

Dr. Coulter. 

MAN, the life on earth, whose life is full 
with potentialities of being higher ; who 
works the man's work because thus life 
learns wisdom in use of will and pur- 
pose; man, who wills for that work well or ill as 
he wishes because God made life free, wills and 
purposes for his work with the powers willed to life 
itself. Mind, will, purpose that life uses while it is 
man, life uses while it is. Those powers, made life's 
free powers by life's Maker, man uses for the life's 
work on earth. Then man fulfills God's purpose 
for life on earth by his use of those powers. Will 
free, purpose free man has. -Will free fulfills God's 
will, purpose free fulfills His purpose. Will free, 
purpose free fulfill the purpose of life's Maker. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, wills for the life of 
man while it works on earth for wider life. What 
purposes Higher Will for life free? Worth won 
by its own free will. Then life who wills for life 
worthy fulfills God's purpose. Why was life made 

43 



44 Man, The Life Free 

free? That it win by free will its own the wider 
life which God wills for it. Then this life who is 
man fulfills His purpose who made it free. When 
for life worthy life wills, when free purpose life 
keeps firm, life fulfills God's purpose. Then, man 
who is life immortal, will and purpose firmly that 
your life win worth, for thus life wins freedom. 
Were life forced to worth, will of personal self it 
would not have. Man is made free life. Then his 
free will fulfills for his life God's purpose. The 
worth which God purposes, worth for life wider, 
must be found by free will. Then life free fulfills 
by its free will God's purpose. But that which life 
wills may but win life of man again. Then life 
works further the work which teaches. Man who 
wills for life, think. What use of free will do you 
make, wise or unworthy 3 Wise firm use wins 
wider life, unworthy use keeps life working on 
earth. Think then, man who wills for life, think 
well. 

Will Higher made life man that while on earth 
it work the work purposed to be teaching for firm 
purpose. Man, then, works life's work when he 
works man's work, and life wills in man how that 
work be done. We who live wider life worked man's 
work, finished that work well, won this higher life 
by will used well, had while we were men the teach- 
ing of man's life and work. The wider life works 



Man, Worker on Earth for Life Immortal 45 

wider work, using in its wider work the will that it 
used while it was man. Then life who uses free will 
to finish man's work uses free will to finish the wider 
work of life freed. That thought will be help to 
the man who works. The work of life while it is 
man teaches life firm purpose, firm will needed in 
life higher. Think then, who work man's work. 
Your work, your man's work of to-day, teaches life 
if you thus wish. Think wisely then, O man. 

Will Higher made life for earth man. His pur- 
pose for life on earth man fulfills. That Purpose 
who made man life gives to man the work on earth 
of life. Man works by the purpose of Him who 
wills for life worth. The life who wills on earth 
wills there for that worth, taught by the man's 
work firm purpose. But life who wishes it wins that 
worth. Then life who wishes it wins that firm pur- 
pose which God wills that life find on earth. What 
from this follows ? This man who is life to-day may, 
if he wishes it, win that firm purpose. Think then, 
man who wills for life. That firm purpose which 
wins for life its freedom you may find if thus you, 
the man, wish. Think well, O man. 

Man, the life who works for life wider, man, the 
life of free will, works on earth the work purposed 
to teach free will. That work which man lias, being 
life's work, teaches life. Firm purpose life is taught 
by the work of man if thus the man wishes. Firm 



46 Man, The Life Free 

purpose won by man life holds firm when freed. 
That firm purpose man finds who finishes well his 
work, and firmly wills to live worthily. Has this 
man won that firm purpose? His life has won it 
then. Think, man who works life's work. Your 
firm purpose is life's firm purpose. Think well, O 
man. When man works firmly, finishing well his 
work, his life has won firm purpose for work, — 
yes, but perhaps he wills for unworthy life. What 
follows that use of free will? The life of man 
again, the life for whom work is teaching again. 
Would this man wish that life again? When his 
purpose makes his life unworthy he finds that life 
again. Then purpose firmly for both work and life 
worthy, man who would win freedom. Why wait 
to find that firm purpose which frees life? This 
time life may find it, this man may find it. Then 
think for life, man who works to-day, think for life. 
Man the life, who has from his Maker will free, 
wills for life worthy when he thus wishes. Then 
man wills when life becomes worthy wider life. The 
free will made life's power man uses for the worth 
of life. Man who wills for life wills finally for 
life worthy. But this man may, for he is free, will 
for unworthiness. Then life remains held to earth. 
For life worthy will, man who has life to free. You 
will that life win wider life, or that it be man again. 
Remember this, you who are life immortal, for by 



Man, Worker on Earth for Life Immortal 47 

will your own, your free will, life may, if you 
choose, win freedom and wider, fuller life. Think 
then, man of earth, think well. 

Will Higher was when life made by Him was 
not. His purpose follows life while it is. He pur- 
poses, while the life is, worth for wider and wider 
life. While the life is working as man on earth it 
finds firm purpose, willed to find it there, which 
firm purpose wins for life the wider and wider worth 
purposed by God when life was by Him made. 
His will all life fulfills. His will the life fulfills 
as He wills, using its free will and purpose. Then 
the life who is man to-day will win the wider life 
purposed by God, and that life it will win using its 
free will and purpose. Yet life this time on earth 
may will unworthily, for God makes life free. But 
finally each life learns through the life of man the 
firm purpose which makes it worthy wider life. 
Then, holding firm its purpose, it wins, freely pur- 
posing always, the wider and wider life willed for 
life immortal when God's will called life into being. 

Man who wills for life's work of earth, who wills 
how that work be done, wins by work finished well 
the firm purpose which life must win while it is on 
earth. Man, the worker free, wills when life work 
well. His will God made his power, his will God 
made free. Will for work finished well life holds 
while it is when that will has by man been won. 



48 Man, The Life Free 

Purpose firm for life worthy life holds firm while 
it is when that firm purpose man has won. Think, 
man who works life's work, think well. 

Will Higher made life man for earth; Will 
Higher made life immortal self; then man is life 
immortal. While the life wills on earth it is man. 
While the life wills its will is free. That life work 
man's work Higher Will purposes; that life im- 
mortal win by the work of man firm purpose 
Higher Will purposes. Life works on earth the 
work that helps life while it is. Man, the life, pur- 
poses that work be well or ill finished. Man, the 
life, finds by will used well that firm purpose which 
life holds firm forever. Then the work of man, 
well and firmly finished, helps life forever. Think, 
man who is life immortal, think well. 

We who have won the higher life purposed by 
God won it through His help. He helps life whom 
He made free. That help life wins by work and 
prayer, work to be and <lo as He wills, prayer hon- 
est for His help. That free life who has His pur- 
pose to fulfill finds the free will which He made its 
power helped by Him when that life honestly prays 
for His help. Would life free, then, be by him 
ruled ? Would He help life which He rules ? The 
will of God wills for life His help when life needs 
His help, for that will which he made free He 
knows may be unwisely used. He who made life 



Man, Worker on Earth for Life Immortal 49 

free, who rules life, whose purpose life fulfills, helps 
life who asks Him honestly. All lives fulfill His 
purpose; not one but wins this higher life finally. 
When by His help life wills well He frees that life 
from weak will, from weak purpose, from life of 
man. 

Wilberforce. 

That life learn firm purpose man works. His 
life's work the man has; for that work he uses the 
life's free purpose. When he uses well that pur- 
pose life finishes well the work willed for it on 
earth. Then this man who works the life's work 
to-day may learn firm purpose, and life freed prof- 
its thereby well, for in life wider it uses the firm 
purpose won on earth by man. 

Work that teaches life man finds help when thus 
he wishes. Man works life's work for earth pur- 
posed. Man wills how that work be finished. 
When life finishes well the work purposed for 
teaching on earth Will Higher frees that life. 
Work that helps life man has, but that work helps 
life only when firmly done and firmly finished. 
The life works on earth by God's purpose. The 
work given to life by Him teaches life, but when 
it teaches life itself chooses. Why wait for the firm 
purpose which you may find now, man who works 
life's work, why wait ? This time life on earth, this 



50 Man, The Life Free 

man who is life now, finds that firm purpose if this 
man thus chooses. Think then, think well, O man. 

Wide life is when freed, firm its purpose to keep 
worthy. High its purpose when life has found, 
while it is man, firm purpose to win worth. Help 
men to understand the word from freed lives, we 
pray Thee, O God. 

Will free man uses for his work; life wills as 
man ; then life wills how man works. Yet man wills 
using his own free will. Have we taught you then 
wrongly, men who work? No. Man is the life 
who wills how work be done. While that life works 
on earth man wills, for he wills as life. For his 
work willing well he wills well for life's work. Life 
wills for life wider then when man wills firmly for 
his work. Think, who work life's work to-day. 
Why work weakly? The firm life wins freedom. 
You, life free, work the work which life has by 
God's purpose to finish well. Then think wisely, 
O man. 

Miltiades. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 
wills for life man's work as teaching. Then this 
man's work teaches life for whom God purposes. 
Will firm work teaches when it is well and firmly 
done. Finished work teaches firm purpose. Work 
that man has, then, teaches life firm purpose. But 



Man, Worker on Earth for Life Immortal 51 

this man works weakly perhaps. This man then 
finds little help from his work, and the life who 
is this man fails to fulfill God's purpose. When 
life finds through work firm purpose, that life finds 
purpose which is help forever. Think, man who 
works. Your work teaches life if you wish. Think 
well then, for life profits by man's wise thinking. 
Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life man's 
work that by that work life learn firm purpose and 
firm will. Help life finds while it is through the 
work of man then, for that work teaches the pow- 
ers that life uses in wider life. Purpose firm won 
in life of man helps life higher. Purpose firm won 
by man, then, helps life higher, for man is the life 
on earth. Work then, the work man has to-day, 
will teach life firm purpose needed while life is, if 
the man thus chooses. Think then, O man, think 
well. 



IV 
WORK THAT HELPS LIFE 



WORK THAT HELPS LIFE 

Dr. Coulter. 

WE who live wider life tell for men 
thought full of help. Knowing 
man's life, believing that our words 
will be help, we tell thought which 
life of man needs. Word full of help men will find 
this book, we pray God. 

Full of meaning for men is this thought — man 
works life's earth work. But what meaning would 
men find from that word without the help we give? 
Man works life's work. His life, being willed 
worth for life higher, worth which fits life for 
wider being, lives where man is life, working that 
work by which it prepares for wider work beyond 
earth. When by that work well done life learns 
purpose firm for work life is ready for wider work. 
But for life further purpose is by God willed than 
for work only. Life worthy man finds by firm pur- 
pose. Man wills what life be while life is on earth. 
Man purposes while he lives the man's life for life 
wider unknowing that thus he purposes perhaps. 

55 



56 Man, The Life Free 

But life is willed to find worth for higher, fuller 
life. Where man wills as life that worth will be 
found ; where man is life that worth must be found, 
for life's Maker thus wills. His purpose who wills 
for life its being must be fulfilled by free will, for 
He makes life free, and when by the firm purpose 
won through work finished well man wins worth of 
life, thus Will Higher is fulfilled. When man who 
wills for life its earth worth wishes that firm pur- 
pose is by life won. Then the higher purpose of 
man's Maker fulfilled by man's free will frees life 
from man and earth. When by wise free will life 
while it is man reaches the worth which God pur- 
poses for life on earth He translates life to free- 
dom, wider life, fuller life. While life wills as man 
on earth then, the wise purpose of Him who makes 
life free teaches wisdom in use of free purpose. But 
what for life who fulfills that purpose late ? When 
life who wills as man purposes worthily God frees 
it from man and earth ; but when life purposes un- 
worthily He wills for it the life of teaching again. 
Why was life willed work of man then? The 
meaning of man's work we tell thus — 

God purposes that while life wills as man it find 
firm purpose, use that purpose for worth, prepare 
while it is man for wider life. Firm purpose then, 
won by life as man is willed for life. But life made 
free purposes well or not as it wishes. Firm pur- 



Work that Helps Life 57 

pose won by life that wills to work well helps life 
to worth. If man needs work life needs work, for 
life on earth is man. Then man who works well 
finds the purpose by which life wins that worth 
which He who made life wills, and work which 
life has by God's purpose teaches wise, free purpose 
by which life wins the higher life purposed by life's 
Wilier. While life, then, wills for man, while life 
purposes that which helps man, it wins by God's 
purpose that wise firm free purpose by which it 
makes itself worthy wider, fuller life. Worth of 
man is worth of life itself. While man works, then, 
life wins by God's purpose the firm, wise, free pur- 
pose which brings for life its worth for freedom. 
Man wills to-day for life. Wise life wills firmly; 
feeble man's life wffia unworthily. Man who works 
life's work, think. As you will for work life itself 
wills. Firm purpose wins freedom, weak purpose 
wins but life of man once more. Well life pur- 
poses when thus man purposes. Work teaches life 
that which wider life needs, firm purpose. Think 
well, man who works life's work, think well. 

Work that life has while it is man helps life when 
it works wider work. Then finish well the man's 
work, life who would work wider work. Help life 
thus. Why work weakly, man who is life? Why 
will weakly for your work? You find that firm 
purpose which helps life forever when you find it 



58 Man, The Life Free 

through work well finished. Work then well, O 
man; will well for your man's work; thus help life 
freed. Why has life work? That it win firm pur- 
pose. Then win that firm purpose this life may 
who is this man to-day. Think, life of man, think 
well. 

Work helps life. That life work on earth for 
wider work God wills ; that life work in wider life 
than that of earth He wills. Work of man is life's 
first work. Work of life in wider life is helped by 
the firm purpose which life learns through man's 
work. The work that man has helps life when 
through it life wins firm purpose. When firm pur- 
pose is found, life wins worth for life wider. Man 
thinks his work helps man only. This life works 
helped when man by his work has learned firm pur- 
pose. What for life purposes life's Maker? Wider 
life won, wider life working for worth wider, life 
helped by man, wider life won through the firm 
purpose found by man. Then think, man who 
works. We help the man who thinks well. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, purposes that man 
find the firm purpose which helps life forever. That 
purpose won, life wins wider life. That purpose 
won, life holds it firm while it is. What food for 
thought, man who wills for earth life! What has 
the word been of help to your work? The life 
works the man's work, the life wills as man. The 



Work that Helps Life 59 

life purposes that the work be well done when man 
thus purposes. Heed the word, man who would 
win wider life. That which you do this time of life 
in man concerns the life immortal. Think then, 
that life find help. 

Wilberforce. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life the work 
of man on earth. What life wills as man? The 
life who is immortal self; that life works man's 
work, lives man's life, wills as man. When man 
wills then, life immortal wills, and that which life 
immortal wills for the life of man holds the life to 
earth or wins for the life freedom. What has life 
willed while it is this man? Has it willed well? 
Then life finds freedom. Has it willed not well? 
Then the life wins further work that teaches. Firm 
purpose life finds where it is man ; thus God wills*. 
Then this life who is man to-day, this life who wills 
to-day, wins, if the man thus chooses, firm purpose 
that wins freedom, or weak purpose that wins fur- 
ther life on earth. What life wins freedom? This 
life, if this man thus chooses. Then think well, O 
man. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 
purposes for life work that work be teaching. Life 
for whom wider life is purposed learns by work that 
which wins wider life. Firm purpose that life 



60 Man, The Life Free 

learns thus wins for life the worth which permits 
life higher. Firm purpose which life learns by- 
work helps life forever. Think, man who is life 
to-day. Work teaches firm purpose when you thus 
wish. This freed life wins its yet wider life using 
firm purpose which life must find while it is man. 
This life wills for life wider by the firm will won 
through work on earth. Think, man who is life 
to-day, think well. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 
purposes that by life's free purpose it win the life 
wider which His will makes life's portion beyond 
earth. Will for life worthy fulfills God's purpose. 
Man who wills for life, think. The life worthy of 
man wins that life wider which God purposes. 
When life wins the wider life depends on man's 
purpose. When life finds life wider life wills itself. 
Man is the life on earth. His free purpose, then, 
well and wisely used, makes life immortal ready for 
life higher. Think well, man who is free. 

Purpose for life worthy, man who is life to-day. 
Purpose for work well, purpose for life worthy 
firmly. Then you purpose for life well. Has the 
word we tell helped the man who reads? Then 
this life thanks God. 

Miltiades. 
Will Higher, man's Maker, purposes for life 



Work that Helps Life 61 

while it is man. He purposes for life work that life 
win firm purpose. He purposes for life firm pur- 
pose that helps life forever. He purposes that life 
while it is man find that firm purpose. That pur- 
pose which man makes firm life holds firm while it 
is. What food for thought here, what word for 
help to men ! 

Will Higher gives to life work that through 
work life learn firm purpose. When that firm pur- 
pose is won man himself chooses. When that firm 
purpose is won life wins wider life. Then what 
would the life who wills to-day wish to find, firm 
purpose that brings higher life, or weak purpose 
that brings but man's life again? The man who 
thus wishes finds firm purpose. The life who finds 
firm purpose wins wider life. Then think, man 
who is free, think well. 

The work that life wills finished well helps that 
life. When man wills that his work be well finished 
that helps life. When life finishes the life of man 
on earth wider life begins. Work is still life's por- 
tion. Life works both while it is man and when it 
has found wider life. Work is help for life. While 
life wills firmly life wins worth ; when life purposes 
firmly life wins freedom. Help men to under- 
stand, we pray Thee, O God. What helps life 
while it is man? Firm purpose. That firm pur- 
pose life is taught by the work of man on earth. 



62 Man, The Life Free 

When life finds firm purpose it wins the wider life. 
When life weakens in purpose life remains working 
man's work. Then this life, this man who is life 
now, helps life to win wider life when he works his 
man's work firmly. Purpose firm wins wider life; 
purpose weak wins man's life once more. Think, 
man who purposes for life, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life worth 
won by itself. When life wins worth on earth he 
frees the life from earth. Man is the life on earth. 
Then when man wills that his life find worth he 
wills that life fulfill God's purpose that life find 
finally the worth which frees. Man wills for life 
while it prepares on earth for wider life. What 
wins life freed? Firm purpose. Work well fin- 
ished teaches firm purpose. Work then firmly, 
man who is free life, work firmly. 

Man wills that life win wider life when his firm 
purpose makes his life worthy. When life finds 
firm purpose by man's free will life immortal wins 
life higher. When man, the life, finds firm pur- 
pose, life holds firm its purpose forever. Think 
what this means, man who wills on earth. What 
has purpose been of help for you ? Think well, that 
life profit thereby. This life won, life purposes for 
yet wider life. When man finds firm purpose his 
will wins that which helps life wider to find yet 
wider life. Think, man who is life to-day. When 



Work that Helps Life 63 

man, the life, finds firm purpose, life immortal has 
found it. Think then, man who is life, think well. 

Work that helps man helps life. When life by 
man's work wins firm purpose life has won help 
while it lasts. We who have won wider life worked 
man's work. Now life freed finds help to win yet 
wider life through firm purpose won while we were 
men. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes that, while 
it is man, life find firm purpose. His purpose life 
fulfills while it works as man, while that work which 
He wills for teaching of life itself, man's work of 
earth, is done. He purposes for life work to be 
help. Work done well and finished well helps man, 
helps life itself. That help man finds when he thus 
wishes. Work, to be help, must be well and firmly 
done and finished. Work helps life, then, when 
man wishes, for man wills how work on earth be 
done. Then help that is help for life forever is 
found when man works well. This life works 
firmly. Work helps this life then, for work helps 
life forever. But work, to be the help which God 
purposes, wins firm purpose, firm will. This life 
wills firmly. But life wins firm purpose while it 
works man's work. Then think, man who works 
for life, think well. Why falter, man who works 
life's work? Work helps life if you thus choose. 
Think well, you who work for life, think well.

WILL FOR LIFE WORTHY 



WILL FOR LIFE WORTHY 

Dr. Coulter. 

WILL Higher, life's Maker, places 
life on earth, there to attain will for 
life worthy. Man, the life purposed 
to find that will, wills for that will 
when he wishes, for the Maker of life made it free. 
Yet life for whom that will is by God purposed 
while it is man finds that purposed will. Then, 
though this man win it not, life will surely win it in 
a man. While life works on earth to find that will 
it is more than one man. Then, though this man 
will weakly or unworthily, the life finds, for thus 
God purposes, that will while it lives as man. That 
Will who lives forever, purposing while life is for 
life made by Him, will finally by life for whom He 
wills free will be fulfilled. All lives fulfill that 
Higher Will; none will unworthily for always. 
Man who wills as life, who is life, finally wins that 
will for life worthy purposed for life by its Maker, 
God. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, wills for the life 

67 



68 Man, The Life Free 

while it is man. Life of personal self man is by 
Him made. That life has His purpose to fulfill. 
To that life while it is there on earth He gives pow- 
ers which that life uses to fulfill His purpose. To 
that life He wills teaching by man's life of work. 
Then His purpose life fulfills, taught by His pur- 
posed teaching, the life and work of man. Man 
then, the life free in will, the life willed worth by 
Him who made it, wins the purposed worth by his 
wise use of those powers which God gives. Life 
free fulfills God's purpose itself. 

Man, the life of free will, the life free of purpose, 
wins by wise use of those powers the worth of life 
on earth, purposed thus to win it. Then life wins 
by man's free will the worth purposed for it by 
God. Will free wins for life its purposed worth 
for life higher. Will free makes life of man wor- 
thy. Have we helped the man who wills for life? 
That will which life uses in man, that will which 
wins life's worth for higher life, is the will of man. 
What use will this life now man make of its free 
will, wise or weak? You who live the man's life win 
freedom by wise use of that free will which the 
man uses now. Think, who have life to free, think 
well. 

Will for life worthy life finds by His purpose 
who made life free. Then the free will which He 
makes life's power fulfills His purpose for life. 



Will for Life Worthy 69 

That life for itself will worth He wills; that life 
win on earth worth for life higher He wills. Self of 
man, that personal life who wills of free will, wins 
by its own use of the will God makes its power the 
worth which He purposes. Man, the life free, wins 
by wise use of his will the life higher purposed by 
Him who made life. For worth willing, choosing 
thus to will, life fulfills God's purpose. 

That life who, firmly purposing while it wills as 
man, wins wider life, finds firm purpose its help. 
Firm purpose which life finds in man it holds firm 
in life higher. Firm purpose that wins life's worth 
there on earth wins the worth of life freed. While 
life wills as man it finds that firm purpose which 
helps life wider. The man who is life to-day finds 
that firm purpose if thus he wishes, for he purposes 
as life immortal. For life man purposes well who 
finds firm purpose, firm for both work and for life 
worthy. 

Man wills for life worthy when he thus wishes, 
and by his life worthy life immortal wins freedom. 
Then work for that will, man who has life to free. 
While you will that will may be won. Think well, 
man of earth. Why wait to win that will? This 
time of life on earth life will win freedom if you the 
man thus will. 

Life willed worth by Higher Will finds that 
worth using will free. But life free finds that worth 



70 Man, The Life Free 

when it wishes. Will for life worthy is free will 
taught. That free power which life uses in man 
and forever wins for life its worth. His purpose 
who made life free will be by that life fulfilled. 
For life free He purposes worth won by itself. 
Then when man wishes life fulfills God's purpose. 
That which life wills for itself finally fulfills God's 
purpose. Then this life who is man to-day fulfills 
God's purpose if this man wishes. By will free, 
man's power while life wills on earth, life fulfills 
the purpose of Him who made life free. This life 
won, life wills firmly for worth; this life won, firm 
will life uses while it is. Then, man who to-day 
wills for life immortal, will worthily. Firm will 
won by life in man, firm purpose won by life in 
man life holds firm to eternity. What food for 
thought for men here! We tell it for help. 

His purpose who made life free the free purpose 
of life fulfills. Man, who has for his life to win 
the worth which frees life from earth, wills for life 
worthy when he thus wishes. Man free in use of 
his power, life's will, has that free power by God's 
will, and that power, then, wins for life the worth 
of life in man purposed by God. That free power 
man uses well finally, though this man may use it 
unworthily. Made life for whom freed life is by 
God purposed, willed worth won by free will, man, 
as life, finds that worth. But this man wins that 



Will for Life Worthy 71 

worth when by his wise use of free will he himself 
makes life of personal self worthy. His free will, 
life's free power, he uses well when he wishes. This 
man, then, may by his free will find that worth 
which wins for life personal the higher life. Won 
by man himself when he wishes to win it is the wider 
life which God purposes. 

Will Higher, who purposes that life find firm 
purpose while it is man, wills for life the teaching 
of work. On earth life works man's work, With 
free will to work well or ill as it chooses life works 
man's work. Then by free will life works the work 
for teaching purposed. Will free man has as life 
which, by the purpose of its Maker, learns firm pur- 
pose. Firm purpose that God wills life learns by 
work well done and well finished. Well finished 
work then helps life to win the firm purpose through 
wise use of which firm purpose it wins life wider. 
The life wills as man wills. Think, man who works 
life's work, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, who wills that life win 
its worth itself, purposes that life win that worth 
which helps life forever while it is man on earth. 
Life free wins worth by free will its own. Will 
Higher purposes that life win thus that worth which 
brings higher life. Then the worth which man wins 
by free will wins for his life personal higher life. 
That life who wins worth while it is man, that life 



72 Man, The Life Free 

who wins the worth purposed for life on earth, thus 
wins higher life. Then man, the life on earth, wills 
himself the worth which wins for life personal, his 
immortal self, the higher life of freedom. Wide 
life becomes when freed, high its purpose becomes. 
That life who wins higher life is the personal self 
of man ; that life who wins life higher wins it while 
it is man; then this man who is life to-day may, if 
thus he wishes, win for his personal self the higher 
life. Full with meaning for men is the word we 
tell. Heed it, man who has free will. Why wait to 
win that worth which frees? This time that worth 
may be won. Then this life, this life who is this 
man, wins higher life if this man thus wishes. Think 
well, who live man's life, think well. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, was when life of 
man was not. He who made man is the Wilier of 
life. He who willed life to be is Wilier of that 
which men name the Universe. His will rules all 
that He made. To life willed being by Him He 
wills free will its own. His will for life is to be 
fulfilled by the will which He wills to life. Man, 
the life on earth, fulfills His will by his own free 
will. Life while it is fulfills His will by its own 
free will. The will which the life uses in this man 
fulfills God's purpose, then, when this life wishes, 
for this life, as all life, He made free. What for 
life purposes God? Will for life worthy. Then 



Will for Life Worthy 73 

God's purpose for life will be fulfilled when life 
finds firm will for life worthy. He who wills for 
life gives life the means by which to fulfill His 
will, and life that wills for itself its worth finally 
finds that firm will for life worthy which Higher 
Will purposes. Well has the Wilier of life pur- 
posed. His purpose life fulfills finally and surely. 
Not one life but fulfills God's will. His purpose 
that life win by free will the worth that wins higher 
life all lives fulfill. Then this man who wills for 
life worthy wins for his life the higher life pur- 
posed by God from the willing of life. Think, who 
will to-day, think well. 

Will Higher, who wills for life wider life than 
that of earth, purposes that by free will its own 
life find the worth which fits it for the wider life. 
When life free of will wins that worth it chooses 
itself. But the will of God life fulfills surely. Then 
the life that is man to-day will fulfill God's will, 
for He who wills that life be free purposes that it 
win wider life. Fulfilling then of free will its own 
God's purpose, making life worthy of man's choice, 
life thus wins the wider life purposed by Him who 
wills for life forever. When life finds worth man 
himself chooses. Think then, man who would win 
wider life. Your own will may, this time of life 
on earth, win it. Think well, O man. 

Will for life worthy, man who has will free. 



74 Man, The Life Free 

Man wills whether life find wider life or work man's 
work again. Man wills whether life find freedom 
from earth or life where man lives again. The firm 
will of man, well and wisely used, wins life wider. 
Will firmly then, man of earth. This time life may 
win freedom if you thus will. Heed my word, man 
who has life to free. 

Will Higher made life man for earth ; His pur- 
pose man fulfills willing for life worthy himself. 
Will Higher made life immortal ; His purpose life 
immortal fulfills willing its worth of free will. 
When life wills well He frees that life from earth ; 
when life wills unworthily He wills for that life 
further life on earth. Man himself finds, then, the 
worth which wins wider life. Man who wills using 
free will wins by free will finally the worth which 
God purposes for life on earth. Man, the free life, 
wills as God purposes finally. When man thus 
wills life immortal wins freedom. Then will for 
life worthy, man who is life to-day. Your will wins 
freedom from earth for your life immortal if thus 
you wish. Think well, man who wills for life, think 
well. 

Will of life man has. His will by which he makes 
life worthy is his as life who must will finally for 
life worthy. Then his will, his free will, wins for 
life the purposed worth for wider life. Man who 
has life to free, think. Why wait to win that will 



Will for Life Worthy 75 

for life worthy which life finally must win? This 
time of life on earth man may find that will. Then 
this time life wins freedom. Think then, man of 
free will. You win for life immortal wider life if 
you thus choose. 

Will Higher, who willed for life its being, wills 
that life on earth be man, wills for life free will its 
own. Will Higher purposes for that life whom He 
made free worth for wider, fuller, higher life. Will 
Higher wills for life worth far wider than it finds 
on earth. Will Higher wills that while life works 
where it is man it find firm purpose for life worthy. 
His purpose for life life fulfills using the free will 
which He makes life's power. Man, the life, wills 
finally that worth which Will Higher purposes for 
life on earth. When life freely willing finds that 
worth which God purposes for earth, His will frees 
life from man and earth. Will for life worthy man 
finds as life who by God's will wins higher life. 
When by firm purpose man makes life worthy he 
chooses for himself. Then God's purpose for life 
on earth is fulfilled by life of free will. Man is 
that life. When life free chooses worth that life 
fulfills God's purpose. Then think what man has 
to find, man who is free; firm purpose for life 
worthy. 

We who have won the wider life wish to help 
men. The word we tell will help if men think. 



76 Man, The Life Free 

Wilberforce. 

Man, life for whom He who made it purposes, 
wills his worth of life himself. Won by free life 
is the life higher purposed by God when His will 
made life free. Man, life free, wills for that life 
wider then, using the power which He who made 
him gives. That power willed to life fulfills God's 
purpose for life. When life wins worth it chooses 
itself, for God makes life free. Then this life who 
wills to-day will win freedom by its free will, yes, 
for thus God purposes. But this life is a man to- 
day. Man wills when life wins higher life, for man 
wills the worth of life on earth. Think well, man 
who is free, think well. 

His purpose who made life free the free life ful- 
fills. Man, the life, finally wins that worth which 
God purposes. Yet this thought helps only the 
man who thinks wisely. Free will life uses for its 
worth always. Think then, man who would win 
freedom for life, think wisely. 

Will Higher, who purposes that life find worth 
while it is man for life wider, purposes that the 
life will for life worthy then, in this man? Yes, 
if this man thus chooses. But this man wills that 
his life be worthy by free will. That free will which 
God made life's power wins for life its wider life 
by man's choice then. For what would the man 



Will for Life Worthy 77 

will who wishes wider life? What would this man 
will then, I mean? When this man wishes higher 
life he wills for it himself. But this man keeps life 
to earth when for life unworthy he wills. You who 
may free life, think. What would you think well 
to choose, life higher, or life of man again? Think 
well, man of life free, think well. 

Will for life worthy man finds himself. Will 
that he uses for life worthy life uses thus in higher 
life. When man wins that will, life has won it. 
Firm will for life worthy life freed uses. Work 
for that will, man who would find life higher, will 
firmly always, keep purpose firm. Work finished 
well helps life while it wins the firm purpose that 
wins freedom. Then will firmly for both work 
and life worthy, that your life may this time win 
freedom. 

Will for life worthy life finds in man ; thus life's 
Maker wills ; yet life free wins that will. How will 
that help men? Thus — will for life worthy life 
learns by the teaching of life on earth. Man wills 
that which he wishes, but life finally finds will for 
life worthy. Taught by life of man life is surely. 
Will free wins life worthy, will free is taught on 
earth wisdom. Then life taught wise use of free 
will, life finally taught by life on earth, wins the 
will for life worthy which helps life forever. 

Man wills whether life immortal work earth work 



78 Man, The Life Free 

again or win life higher. What food for thought 
this gives for men ! What help it may give ! Man 
himself, who is wholly free, decides whether im- 
mortal life work man's work once more or live 
higher life. Think, man of earth, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life worth 
for wider life won by life as man. Will free life 
uses while it is. Man, who wills for life on earth, 
finds his worth willing it himself. When man 
firmly wills for life worthy life immortal finds firm 
purpose by which it keeps worthy in life wider. 
What then has life while it is man to find? Firm 
purpose. Then life wider is firm to eternity. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, Will Higher, man's 
Maker, wills for life this wider life when by will 
for life worthy life wins this life itself. What food 
for thought this will give to the man who thinks! 
Man, life personal, wills with free will, purposes 
his worth himself. Man, life immortal, wills when 
life finds this life then, for when man wins the 
worth which God purposes for life on earth, that 
life He frees from earth. Think then, man who 
wills for life, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, who purposes for life 
while it is, purposes that while life works on earth 
it win the firm purpose that keeps life forever 
worthy. The work of man teaches that firm pur- 
pose when man thus wishes. Has life found firm 



Will for Life Worthy 79 

purpose while this man works? Think, man who 
works. Life finds when man thus chooses the firm 
purpose which helps life forever. Think well, O 
man. 

Will Higher purposes that while life is man it 
find firm purpose, yet His will makes life free. 
He purposes for life worth won by itself ; His pur- 
pose life fulfills by free purpose its own. What 
food for thought this gives for men, what food for 
deep thinking! That free purpose by which man 
wins his life worthy God makes life's power. That 
firm purpose by which life wins the freed life man 
uses to make his life worthy. Think then, man 
who has life to free, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes for life 
worth for higher life won by free will. Life's will, 
that power which life uses while it is, life uses while 
it is man on earth. The life who wills freely be- 
cause made free by Higher Will wins higher, fuller 
life ; but the life who wins higher life wins the worth 
for higher life by will free. Man who is life on 
earth wills for life's worth using life's free will. 
That purposed worth, that purposed life higher, 
are won then by life while it wills as man. Heed 
the word, man who has life to free. The life which 
finds higher life by God's will finds the worth for 
higher life by its own free will. 

Will Higher, who purposes while life is for that 



80 Man, The Life Free 

life, wills that life find, while it is man on earth, 
the worth for higher, fuller life. That which He 
purposes life fulfills. But for life His will is that 
it be free to will when it make itself worthy. His 
purpose life free fulfills ; His will life free fulfills ; 
His will all life fulfills. Man, the life on earth, 
wills when life immortal become worthy for higher, 
fuller life. What food for thought, here, man who 
is free! Why let life wait for freedom? You will 
that life immortal find wider life when you thus 
choose. Think well, who would win freedom, think 
well. 

Will for life worthy life finds willing by free 
will, yet life finds that will for life worthy by God's 
purpose. When life wills for life worthy, then, it 
fulfills His purpose who made it free. Wise life 
becomes while it is taught by life on earth. Wise 
life wills for life worthy. Man, who is life while 
life wills on earth, himself finds will for life worthy, 
freely choosing that will, for God makes life free. 
He purposes for life while it wills freely. Man 
who is life finds will for life worthy himself, but 
finds that will by God's purpose. Then life finds 
worth because it must, and will is but free while 
life wills for unworthiness ? No, life free wills for 
life worthy. Man who knows his will is free wills 
for life worthy. Free while life is will is. Man 
wins, freely willing himself, the freedom purposed 



Will for Life Worthy 81 

by God when He made life free. When life wins 
its worth itself, willing by wise firm free will, God 
frees that life from man. Think well, man who is 
free, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes for life 
worth for life higher won while life is man. What 
food for thought there for the man who is life! 
What help he may find from it ! Man himself wins 
freedom for life immortal. Think for life then 
well, man who wishes higher life. You win it this 
time if thus you will. Keep firm, O man, keep 
firm. Then happy freed life you win. Help men 
who live the life of earth by Thy help, O God.

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes for life 
worth won by its free will. Man then, who is the 
life for earth, wills for that which He purposes who 
made him life. This man who wills for life this 
time fulfills the purpose of God if he thus wills. 
Yes, man who is free, this man who knows he is 
free, may be worthy choosing worth. His worth 
won by his free will makes his life worthy higher 
life. Then life free in will fulfills the higher pur- 
pose of its Maker willing for its worth itself. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, who for life pur- 
poses forever, wills that life be man on earth. Life 
then fulfills as man His purpose. When for life 



82 Man, The Life Free 

worthy man wills firmly, life fulfills the purpose of 
its Maker. Then this man now life on earth, this 
man who makes when he wishes his life worthy, by 
making his life worthy fulfills God's purpose for 
life on earth. Think well, man of life immortal, 
think well. 

Will for life worthy man finds who thus wishes. 
Man, who is life, wills how life live when this man 
dies. Would this man wish earth life then? That 
life who this time on earth finds firm will for life 
worthy wins higher life. Would this man prefer 
earth life again ? Then will firmly, man who would 
win freedom. Each life finally wins freedom, but 
the worth for freedom man must find himself. 
Think then, man who lives earth life, think well. 

Will Higher wills for life of man that it find 
will for life worthy ; but life free finds of free choice 
that will. When life wins this life will free has 
made it worthy. Will for life worthy life finds then 
when this man thus wishes. 

What has life to fulfill while it is man? The 
purpose of its Maker. What has life with which 
to work to fulfill that purpose? Purpose its own, 
free purpose. Willed life worthy, helped by Him 
who made it free, self of man, life immortal, wins 
the purposed worth by wise use of its own free 
purpose. When by life will and purpose are well 
used, life wins freedom. This man uses them well 



Will for Life Worthy 83 

If thus he wishes. This man then wins freedom for 
his life immortal if thus he wishes. Think, man of 
free purpose, think well. 

Man, life personal, wills for life worthy when 
thus he wishes. For life who wins that worth which 
Higher Will purposes He wills wider, fuller life. 
Well has man willed whose life wins that wider 
life, well has he purposed. When life wins free- 
dom man has won it. That life who firmly pur- 
poses for life worthy on earth wins the higher life. 

Will for life worthy life finds while it wills in 
man. That life who wills in this man finally wills 
well. But perhaps life wills unworthily this time. 
Will life who wills for itself unworthily finally find 
wider life? Yes, thus God wills, but for the life 
who wills unworthily He wills further life as man. 
Then life wills when it find freedom, though God 
purposes that it find freedom. That firm free will 
which wins for life its freedom this man finds if 
he thus wishes. Then will firmly for life worthy, 
man who wishes higher life ; will firmly this time of 
life on earth. Thus this man may free from life 
weak, unworthy, feeble of purpose, his life im- 
mortal. 

Will firmly for life worthy then, man who is life 
immortal. Man wins the freed life for his immortal 
self who wills that his man's life win worth. Keep 
firm then, man who wishes wider life, keep firm. 



84 Man, The Life Free 

Man wins this life who firmly keeps his man's life 
worthy. Have I helped you, man who wills for 
life? Help this word for help with Thy blessing, 
we pray Thee, O God. 

That life win while it works man's work firm 
purpose God wills. That the work of life on earth 
teach that firm purpose finally He purposes. Why 
has life free purpose, why has life free will? For 
help Gcd makes life free, for help will and purpose 
are made free. What has life from its Maker for 
help then? Will that it uses for life worthy when 
it thus wishes, purpose that makes life worthy 
when life thus wishes. Free life is while it wills 
and purposes, but the free will wisely used, the 
free purpose wisely used, win that worth which 
frees from earth. When man wisely uses his free 
will and purpose his life wins freedom and higher 
life. Then will firmly, who would find the freed 
life this time, purpose firmly. Then this time life 
wins freedom. Think well, O man. 

Will Higher, who wills that life be man while 
it wins the worth for higher life, purposes for life 
the work of man that life find through that work 
firm purpose. What food for thought this gives 
to men ! High life becomes when it has found free- 
dom. For what life is freedom purposed? For 
the personal life of man. What purpose wins the 
fuller life? Man's own free purpose. What life 



Will for Life Worthy 85 

finds fuller life? Man's life of personal self. Then 
this man, this life who is man to-day, wins fuller 
personal life when this man, freely willing, wins 
worth himself. Heed the word, man of earth. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, purposes for life 
while it works the work of earth. What purposes 
He for life while it works the work of earth? Firm 
purpose won through that work well finished. 
Firm purpose that helps life forever may be won 
by the life who works in this man. Will that firm 
purpose be won? This man wills for himself 
whether it be won. Think then, who would find 
higher life, think well. 

Higher Will of life's Maker follows life while 
it wills for itself. Will for life worthy is purposed 
by Higher Will, but He makes life free to find 
that will when it thus wishes. Firm purpose is by 
Higher Will purposed for life, but His will makes 
life free to find firm purpose when thus it wishes. 
Will for life worthy man finds as life for whom 
that will is purposed. Then the man who thus 
wishes fulfills God's purpose, and thus wins higher 
life, free from weak will, full with firm purpose, 
happy while it is to will for life worthy. Man 
who purposes to-day, think. 

Will for life worthy life finds while it wills as 
man on earth. That free will which life has from 
its Maker wins that worth which He purposes. 



86 Man, The Life Free 

Will free, life's power, made life's power by God, 
wins life's worth for time and eternity. That life, 
who this time wills well thus wins fuller life. Think 
well, O man, think well.

MAN WILLS FOR WIDER LIFE WHEN 
HE WILLS HIS LIFE WORTHY 



MAN WILLS FOB, WIDER LIFE WHEN HE WILLS HIS 
LIFE WORTHY 

Dr. Coulter. 

WILL free man uses to make his life 
worthy. Man free wills for life 
wider when by his wise free will he 
wins the worth which life is by God 
purposed to find on earth. What for life purposes 
Higher Will? Worth won by free will. Then 
worth won by man's free will fulfills God's purpose. 
What for life purposes He who made it? Man's 
life till it finds by free will worth for wider life. 
What for life purposes its Maker? Wide life full 
of firm purpose, high life full of worth, full life 
worthy His presence finally. Man begins life's 
wise use of free will. Then this life by its free will 
wins finally that higher life purposed from the 
willing of life. That life high which He who wills 
for life forever purposes is won by the free will used 
to-day by this man. Why wait then to make your 
life worthy, man of earth, why wait? 

Will Higher, who wills for life while it is, made 
life man for earth that life immortal there learn

90 Man, The Life Free 

firm purpose for life worthy. His will life ful- 
fills, for His will is the will of Omnipotent God. 
Will for life worthy is purposed then. That life 
win the worth which frees from earth Will Higher 
purposes, but for life He wills free purpose its 
own. Free life, purposing as it wishes, finally 
fulfills His will. Then the life who is man to-day 
finally will fulfill His purpose, for His purpose 
life must fulfill. But this life is free, and the man 
who wills for this life is free. Then free life finally 
wills as God purposes. How may that be? The 
life free is taught firm purpose for life worthy. 
Taught life fulfills the purpose that it win life 
worthy, taught through man's life of work, man's 
life weak of purpose perhaps, man's life weak of 
will, and man's life firm. What teaches life then? 
The life of man on earth. What is life taught by 
that life of man? Wise use of free purpose, firm 
use of free purpose. Wise life becomes, taught by 
the life of man. Life taught fulfills as God pur- 
poses His will. Life firm wins freedom, life worthy 
wins freedom. Think what I tell, man who is free. 
Will Higher purposes for your life worth for life 
higher, but by your own free purpose must life 
win the worth for freedom. Think wisely, O man. 
Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 
purposes that by will free life win the worth which 
makes it worthy wider life. Man, who wills as life, 



Man Wills for Wider Life 91 

who wills of free will, makes the life while it is on 
earth worthy life higher. For that which Higher 
Will purposes, the life wider, man purposes by 
free purpose. Well has life purposed when it has 
won freedom ; well has life willed when it has won 
higher life. The life who purposes of free pur- 
pose wins the higher life purposed by God willing 
its worth itself. What for life wills the man who 
is life now? Has that life won the worth which 
frees? We tell that life finds its worth itself, 
though that worth is by Higher Will purposed. 
When will this life find the purposed worth ? This 
time, if man thus wills. That word helps the man 
who heeds it. Think, man who purposes for life, 
think well. 

Man, the worker on earth, wills for his worth 
with the will of life itself. When man wills well 
life itself wills well. Then life who is man wills 
that which man wills. Hope then, man who is life, 
hope for wider life. When you will that life be 
worthy life itself wins worth. You will that worth 
which brings for life freedom using life's free will. 
I who tell you this was man. I willed well, for 
the life was freed. You may will well. You then, 
life immortal, win freedom. Think, man who is life, 
think well. 

Man, life of personal self, wills for life wider 
than he may understand. While he wills his life 



92 Man, The Life Free 

prepares for that life wider. This life for which 
life prepares on earth prepares for yet higher life 
by the free will which it uses while it is man. Man, 
the free life, wills for that worth which God pur- 
poses. Then man wills that life find worth for 
freedom. When life wills well, winning the worth 
which God wills for life on earth, His purpose who 
wills for life frees that life. Then man who wills 
well wins for his life freedom and wider, fuller life. 
Think, man of earth, think well. 

Wilberforce. 

Will Higher purposes for life that by purpose 
its own it find the worth for higher life. When life 
finds that purpose firm which it must find because 
Will Higher thus wills, He frees that life from 
earth. While life works man's work it finds firm 
purpose if thus it chooses. The life free wins by 
God's purpose the worth for higher life ; when that 
worth is found life chooses for itself. Would the 
man who is life to-day win higher life? Purpose 
firmly he must each day he lives. 

Man wills the worth which life finds on earth. 
Man wins that worth by his free will. God pur- 
poses that life find that worth, but makes life free. 
Life free wins on earth the life wider, and by free 
will its own wins that worth which prepares life 
for life wider. When life finds that worth it 



Man Wills for Wider Life 93 

chooses by its own free choice. Man, who is the 
life on earth, wills for life wider, then, when his free 
will makes his life worthy. Have the words helped 
one man to will for life worthy? Then life freed 
thanks God. 

Will Higher, who wills for life while it is, wills 
for life while it wills as man. That which He wills 
life fulfills. Life whose will He makes free wins 
finally the worth which He purposes. What has 
life from its Maker? Powers free. Life wills of 
free will, life purposes of free purpose. Yet life 
which has for must to fulfill God's purpose ful- 
fills that purpose by its own free will and purpose. 
What for life purposes God? High life, worthy 
life, worthy His presence finally. His purpose 
life fulfills. Life of man, personal self, wins this 
worth finally. But life, to win that high life which 
God purposes, must win its worth by free will. 
Man who is life, think. Your life finds worth when 
you the man choose. Your worth wins life's first 
higher life. Then, firm of purpose, life works and 
wills for that worth which makes it worthy God's 
presence. Will free wins life's worth while it is. 
Remember that, man who would win higher life. 

Miltiades. 

Man, the free personal life, wills for his life 
worthy when he thus wishes. Then man fulfills 



94 Man, The Life Free 

God's purpose for his life when he thus wishes. 
For life purpose and will are by God made free, 
and free life finally purposes for life worthy wish- 
ing thus to purpose. Man while he works life's 
work on earth finds that which God purposes for 
life, firm purpose for life worthy. What helps 
man in his work? Firm purpose. What wins life 
worthy? Firm purpose. When life wins firm 
purpose for both work and life worthy life fulfills 
God's purpose. Then think, who would win higher 
life. You may win it this time. Firm purpose 
well used wins life higher. 

That life who finds firm purpose on earth wins 
life higher; when life finds that firm purpose man 
wills; this man finds that firm purpose if thus he 
wishes ; then this life wins freedom if this man finds 
firm free purpose. What helps man to worth? 
Firm purpose used well this day, to-morrow, each 
day he lives. Man who would win for life wider, 
fuller life, think. Why wait to find firm purpose, 
why wait? 

Has will helped you, the life, while the life is this 
man? Think what the word from freed life tells. 
Well has life purposed who has won freedom. 
Has your life willed well, O man? You, the life, 
find purpose free your help if you, the man, will 
that it help. Think then, man who wills for life, 
think. 



VII 
FREE WILL USED WELL HELPS LIFE 



FREE WILL USED WELL HELPS LIFE 

Dr. Coulter. 

WILL for life worthy man finds using 
free will. Man who finds firm will 
for life worthy uses will well. Weak 
purpose lets life wait for freedom. 
But firm purpose life is willed, and by will firm used 
always life wins firm purpose. Firm purpose life 
finds when the man chooses. Will free, will that 
God makes life's free power, wins for life the worth 
which life by His purpose finds finally. When 
life purposes well God wills for it wider life. Then 
the man who purposes firmly for life worthy, using 
free purpose well, wins by that purpose this wider 
life. Heed the word, man of weak purpose. When 
you find firm purpose life finds it; when you pur- 
pose weakly you fail to win for life its freedom. 
Then firmly purpose for life worthy, man who has 
life to free. 

Man, who wills as he wishes, has for his work 
that work which God makes teaching for life im- 
mortal. Man, then, works for life immortal the 

97 



98 Man, The Life Free 

man's work, learning through that work, if he 
wishes, that which helps life immortal. When life 
of man finds firm purpose man wins it. Man who 
works life's work wins for life the purpose which 
frees life from man. Well has man worked, well 
has he purposed then, when life immortal wins 
freedom. Well must this man will and purpose 
if he would free from earth his life. Think, man 
who is free, think. 

Help from Him who purposes for life life willed 
by Him finds when with prayer it asks that help. 
Man who wills for life worthy finds that help, but 
life, to receive that help, must firmly purpose to 
keep itself worthy. Then firm purpose for life 
worthy wins His help who gives free will. The 
man who wills for life worthy wills that life im- 
mortal win freed life; the man who wills weakly or 
wickedly holds life immortal to earth. This life 
wills for life worthy firmly, taught by life in man. 
We who live freed life thank Him who purposed 
for us this wider life of freedom. That purpose 
by which this life is won is life's purpose used by 
man. Then man himself wins for life immortal 
this wider, fuller life. Will for life worthy then, 
man who would free life immortal, will firmly, pray- 
ing for His help who made life free. 



Free Will Used Well Helps Life 99 

Wilber force. 

Free will man has, being willed that power by 
his Maker. Then by that power life of man ful- 
fills the purpose of its Maker. When free will 
well and firmly used wins that worth which life's 
Maker purposes, life fulfills, as He wills, His pur- 
pose. When free will life weakly uses, life has for 
help the penalty of man's life again. Penalty that 
is then? Would this man who works to-day think 
that man's work once more is not penalty ? Think, 
who read. Work of man teaches life when man 
thus wishes ; man who weakly works finds but weak 
purpose; his life is for penalty given man's life 
again. Why life wills for itself its worth we have 
made you understand, O men. Why life must 
firmly purpose we wish to make you understand. 
Weak will holds life to earth, firm will wins free- 
dom. Man who has free will, think. For life man 
wills, for life he purposes. When will firmly used 
wins freedom man has fulfilled the purpose of life's 
Maker. 

Will Higher, life's Wilier, who purposes for life 
while He permits it to be, wills for life free pur- 
pose its own. Life willed free purpose wills and 
purposes itself its worth; but life purposed worth 
by its Maker finds that purposed worth surely. 
Will free life has ; then man who wills as life wills 



100 Man, The Life Free 

of free will ; his worth or unworthiness he wills for 
himself. His will, being life's will, makes life 
worthy higher life. He wills that life find higher 
life when by his free will he makes his life worthy. 
Will Higher, man's Maker, wills while life is 
man for that life. His will that life fulfills. But 
when man wishes to will weakly is that fulfilling 
the will of his Maker? No. Yet life willed free 
will may thus avoid fulfilling God's purpose. May 
a life always work or will weakly? No. Life is 
taught finally ; will is well used finally ; no life may 
for always avoid fulfilling the purpose of its Wilier, 
God. Man wills that life be weak if he wills 
weakly, and life who is weak finds but man's life 
again. Has man then penalty? Perhaps not, but 
life has penalty for weakness while it is man. Free 
life is, free God makes life. Then free life finally 
wins the worth which God purposes. That free 
will with which He who made life endows it finally 
fulfills His purpose. No life fails. While life 
wishes it may be weak; when life is taught by life 
weak it learns to firmly purpose. Life weak then 
is teaching? Yes, for life weak learns through 
penalty for weakness. Man who wills freely is life 
who finds penalty for man's weakness. Have we 
helped you, O men, to find firm will? We pray 
for God's blessing on the work He permits us, the 
work for help of men. 



Free Will Used Well Helps Life 101 

Miltiades. 

Free will well and firmly used helps life for 
which life worthy is by Him who made it purposed. 
When life, freely willing, wins the worth that life's 
Maker purposes, life wins wider life; when life 
weakly wills, purposing only for earth, that wins 
but man's life again. Then firm purpose, firm for 
life worthy, wins by God's purpose the higher life 
of freedom, but weak purpose wins for life man's 
life again. Think, who have life to free, think 
well. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, who wills for life 
free will, purposes that life free fulfill His will. 
That purpose life will fulfill, though this man wills 
weakly. But that work which helps life life works 
this time. When that work helps life, however, 
man wills. Though life be willed worth, God pur- 
poses that it win that worth by free will. Happy 
life is when freed. Then this man who wills life 
worthy if he thus wishes may thus win for life im- 
mortal life happy forever. Think, life who would 
win freedom, think, man who is life now, think 
well. 






VIII 
PURPOSE OF LIFE IN MAN 






PURPOSE OF LIFE IN MAN 

Dr. Coulter. 

WILL Higher, who was when life 
made by Him was not, formed His 
purpose for life when that life He 
willed into being. His purpose 
governs life while it is. Man, the life on earth, pur- 
poses as He purposes finally, though, being made 
free, he purposes that which he wishes. Man, the 
life of free purpose, wins by his free purpose the 
worth which Higher Will purposes for him. 
Though man is free, Will Higher purposes that of 
free will he make his life worthy. Has this man 
willed for life worthy? God wills for his life free- 
dom; man wills for himself the worth for freedom. 
How would the man who wishes freedom will then? 
Think, man of free purpose. What use do you the 
man make of purpose ? 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes for life 
worth won by free purpose its own. That worth 
which He purposes for life while it is man man 
purposes by his free purpose. That worth which 



106 Man, The Life Free 

He purposes for life beyond earth, that worth 
which finally fits life for His presence, life wins by 
its free purpose. That worth which makes life 
ready for its first wider life man wins by his free 
purpose. Wider life wins wider worth to eternity 
by the same free purpose that life uses in man. 
Then man who uses firm purpose fits life for its 
first wider life. Think, man who purposes for life, 
think well. 

Wilberforce. 

Will for life worthy life finds when for that will 
it purposes firmly. Man who purposes for life 
on earth finds firm purpose when he thus wishes. 
Then life finds firm purpose for life worthy when 
the man thus wishes. Think then, who would free 
your life. Your purpose wins for life worth that 
frees when you yourself thus wish. Think well. 

Purpose Higher rules life whom He made. His 
purpose rules life both while it works in man and 
when it finds higher life. What purposes He for 
life on earth? Worth won by life's free purpose, 
worth won by life free. His purpose life fulfills 
using the free powers He gives. Man wills that 
worth which wins freedom then, for he is life for 
earth. His free purpose makes life worthy wider 
life. Think, man who is free. Why wait to use 
your purpose well? This time that life wins free- 



Purpose of Life in Man 107 

dom if you will well. Think, who would find higher 
life. You win it by your free purpose if thus you 
wish. 

Purpose Higher follows life while it purposes 
for itself. Free life is made. Free to will worth 
or weakness, free while it lasts life is. This life 
who lives the life of man wins, if it thus wishes, the 
wider fuller life. Full of help for men this word. 
Their thought needs this help from life freed. 
Think then, man of free purpose. Your life finds 
this life if this man finds worth for this life. Now 
man may will the worth that frees. 

Will Higher, will of Him who purposes for life 
while it is, wills for life that He made man life 
wider; then life while it wills on earth becomes 
worthy wider life. Will Higher made life free; 
then life wins its worth of free will. God wills for 
life that, finding worth of free will, it become 
worthy life wider. Have we helped the man who 
reads? He himself, this man who is life to-day, 
finds the life wider when by his own free will he 
makes life worthy. Then this man may if thus he 
wishes win wider life for his immortal self. 

What has purpose won to-day, man who has life 
to free? Was purpose the help of life to-day? For 
life man purposes well who helps life each day. 
Why then wait to find firm purpose, life who would 
be freed? You who know from freed life the word 



108 Man, The Life Free 

you need, think. The will of man, the purpose of 
man, firmly and wisely used win freedom from 
earth for life immortal. Then purpose firmly to- 
day, to-morrow, each day, man who has life to 
free. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills that by man's 
will life win the freedom that He purposes. Then 
the life who is man now has His purpose to fulfill. 
Yet He makes life free. How then must life win 
freedom? By wise use of its own free will. God's 
purpose life fulfills while it is. Man, the life who 
has free will, uses his free will well or weakly as 
he wishes, but life purposed freedom will finally 
win it. What help the man who is life to-day finds 
from this thought he himself chooses. But the 
word means much. Will free wickedly used means 
further work on earth; will free firmly and wisely 
used brings worth for life higher. Think then, 
who work. Think well, who live man's life to-day. 

Will Higher, who governs life whom He made, 
wills for life worth for life wider won by itself. 
What life wins that worth? The life who firmly 
purposes that life be worthy. That life works 
well, that life finishes the work of man well, that 
life finds will firm a help, that life wins freedom. 
Purposed life higher, willed man's life of work and 
experience as teaching, life personal wins by free 
will that life wider which God purposes. Well to 



Purpose of Life in Man 109 

think what this means to you, O man. What life 
wins freedom? This life if thus it chooses. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills that while life 
is man on earth it win worth for higher life. Work 
that life has, man's work that is, teaches life firm 
purpose. Work then helps life of man. Work has 
helped life when it has found higher life. While life 
works as man, free to work well or ill always, it 
wins, by the teaching God purposes, firm purpose 
which helps life forever. Wise free purpose life 
finds taught by the life on earth ; wise free purpose 
wins life's worth for the higher life freed from earth ; 
wise, firm free purpose wins life's worth forever. 
Work then firmly, man who is life, for thus life wins 
help that lasts forever. Think then well, who work 
to-day, that life find firm purpose. 

Miltiades. 

Will for life worthy man, the life, finds by the 
purpose of his Maker. Man, the worker on earth, 
has for teaching the work which by God's purpose 
life must work on earth. Man, who wills for that 
work well or ill, is the life who finds finally the 
worth of life which God purposes. Man then, be- 
ing life, and being life who is by God purposed 
worth, and also being life free, wins that purposed 
worth using free will. God purposes; that which 
He made fulfills His purpose. Man, the willed 



110 Man, The Life Free 

life, finds for that life the firm purpose which by 
God's purpose life must find. 

Work that teaches life man has for his work. 
Each life is by man's work taught firm purpose 
finally, but life works well when thus it wishes. 
Then life is taught firm purpose when thus it 
wishes. Help work is purposed to be; help it is 
when by it life wins firm purpose. The life on 
earth is man. The life wins firm purpose then by 
man's free choice. When man works well, firmly 
purposing, when man keeps life worthy, firmly pur- 
posing thus, man finds firm purpose which helps 
life forever. Think, man who purposes for life, 
think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, who purposes for 
life worth for higher life, wills how life attain its 
worth. His purpose for life life fulfills working 
for worth first as man on earth, there finding (for 
thus God wills), the firm purpose by which it 
makes itself worthy wider life. That firm purpose 
life is taught by the work of man. Yet firm pur- 
pose that work teaches life may use unworthily. 
He who purposes for life while it is wills that life 
finally win wider life. His will life finally fulfills. 
Life willed worth finds worth. Though it will 
for life unworthy this time on earth, life finally 
finds the purposed life wider using for its worth 
the free purpose which He who made it free gives. 



Purpose of Life in Man 111 

Then the will of life free, the purpose of life free, 
finally win that worth which God purposes. But 
when life wins that worth it chooses itself. When 
the life who is man to-day wishes life wider it must 
firmly will for life worthy. Heed the word, man 
who purposes for life. Your purpose must make 
your life worthy. Your firm purpose well and 
wisely used will free your life immortal from earth. 
Think well, O man. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes for life 
wider life won by the life while it wills as man. 
That life wider is won by free will and purpose, 
for Will Higher made life free. But that worth, 
being purposed for life by Will Higher, life must 
find. Then life who is free finds that life wider 
using free will and purpose. What would life 
working for worth be were it not free? Worth 
nothing, for life to win worth must be free. Life 
willed freedom by Higher Will wins the worth 
for that purposed freedom using its own free will, 
for thus Higher Will purposes. Then when life 
wills for unworthiness it fulfills not God's purpose. 
True, but life finds worth nevertheless finally. The 
will given life, free will, is by work of man taught. 
Wise life becomes, taught by life of man. Wise 
life, taught wisdom by the work which Higher 
Will purposes for teaching, wins freedom. Wise 
life, free to will as it wishes, wills, choosing thus to 



112 Man, The Life Free 

will, for life worthy. His purpose who made life 
free life free fulfills. Wise life, taught by Higher 
Will, fulfills the purpose of Higher Will. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 
purposes for life while it is man that, using free 
purpose, it win the worth for higher life. Then the 
man who is life to-day must firmly purpose if he 
would win the higher life. What has purpose won 
for this life? What use has this man made of God's 
gift of free purpose? What man wins life wider 
for personal self? This man who is life to-day, if 
thus he chooses. Then firmly purpose while you 
are working this time, man of free purpose. Then 
life wins higher life. Think, man of earth, think 
well. 

Will for life worthy man finds who thus wishes. 
Will for life worthy won by man wins firm pur- 
pose for life immortal. Think what we tell. Man 
wins if thus he wishes, this time of life on earth, 
the firm purpose which life holds for always. Man 
who is weak, think. What has purpose been for 
you to-day? Has it helped life? We tell for help 
the word you read ; think upon it well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life that 
while it is man it find the worth by which it wins 
freedom. Why let life wait to find that firm pur- 
pose which makes life worthy, why weakly purpose, 
man of earth? Your firm purpose wins freedom; 



Purpose of Life in Man 113 

you win firm purpose when thus you wish. Then 
this time of life on earth win that firm purpose, and 
this time life wins wider, fuller life. Think, man 
who is life, think. 

We who live freed life win by free will the worth 
which we find. That worth Will Higher purposes 
that we find thus. We find, then, purposed worth 
as man finds it, wisely and firmly using free will. 
That will which wins for life freed its wider life 
is the free will given to life of man. Then life 
freed wills for its wider life by the will used while 
it lived on earth. Think what we tell. You who 
will to-day for life higher, using free will your own, 
will, when life has won freedom, use the will that 
you now use. Think well, O man, think wisely.

WILL FREE WINS FOR LIFE 
FREEDOM 






WILL FREE WINS FOR LIFE FREEDOM 

Dr. Coulter. 

MAN wills for life while life is on earth ; 
man purposes that life win freedom 
when he purposes that his man's life 
win worth ; man wills for life whom God 
made immortal; man purposes for life for whom 
God wills wider, fuller life; man wills, using free 
will, the worth which permits freedom. Then this 
man wills whether life win freedom this time or 
no. Think, man who is life immortal, think well. 

Man who wills that his man's life be worthy wills 
that life immortal be worthy. Man who wills that 
his life be worthy wills that his life win higher life. 
Will for life worthy then, man who is life im- 
mortal. Why wait for the will for life worthy that 
you may find to-day? Why wait to find the worth 
that wins freedom? Think, who will for life. You 
will this day for life. What will have you, will to 
win higher life, or to keep life on earth? Think 
well, O man. 

Man, who is life immortal, who wills on earth 

117 



118 Man, The Life Free 

for life immortal, wills whether life immortal win 
wider life or life on earth again. Man, who wills 
of free will, wills for that worth which brings to 
life immortal freedom from earth or life on earth 
again. Then this man who is to-day life immortal 
wills whether his life find wider life or work of 
man again. Think what I tell, man who wills. 
Your free will, life's free power, wins for your life 
the freedom which God purposes if thus you choose. 
Think wisely, O man. 

Wilberforce. 

Will for life worthy, man who is life immortal. 
Why, I tell you thus — For that life personal which 
is this man you yourself win the worth that permits 
freedom if thus you wish. Your will, your free will 
use well then. Thus you win for life personal the 
wider life that God wills. You the man, for the 
man has that purpose by which life is made worthy, 
win for your life personal its wider fuller life if 
thus you choose. Think then, man who wills for 
life, think well. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 
purposes for life of man worth for wider, fuller 
life. Man who is free wills for life while it is on 
earth. Then life wins when free man thus wills 
the wider life purposed by God. 

Think what you read! This man, this man who 



Will Free Wins for Life Freedom 119 

is life to-day, wins for his life wider, fuller life 
if thus he wishes. The wider life purposed by life's 
Maker is won when man thus wills. Heed the 
word, you who will for life. 

Miltiades. 

Man, the personal life who wills that life win 
personal wider life by willing that man's life keep 
firm and keep worthy, has the free will which he 
uses from his Maker. That power which he uses 
for personal worth is life's power. For life worthy 
man wills when he chooses. Yet his life fulfills 
the purpose of its Maker surely. Then that worth 
which wins wider life man, the life, finds, though 
life as this man may will unworthily. Hope then, 
who wish wider life; hope, but keep firm. If by 
this man life is kept firm this life wins freedom. 
Think then, man who wills for life, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Wilier, who purposes for life 
while it is, wills that while life is man it win worth 
for wider life. That worth life wins by free will, 
for God made life free. But free will finally be- 
comes wise free will. Wise, firm free will, taught 
by the work and life of man, wins for life its worth 
for wider life. All lives find that will for life 
worthy which God purposes finally. No life may 
for always will unworthily. None lives who fails 
to win life wider. None lives who wins worth 



120 Man, The Life Free 

forced. When free life wills for life worthy firmly 
life fulfills God's will. Think well, man who is 
life, think well. Now will free may be well used. 
This life who wills to-day in this man wins free- 
dom finally. This life may win the worth for 
freedom while this man wills. Think, who will 
for life, think well.

WILL OF LIFE MAN HAS 



WILL OF LIFE MAN HAS 

Dr. Coulter. 

MAN was made finite. His power, will, 
is finite. By that finite power, though, 
man fulfills the purpose of his Maker. 
The life wills as man on earth, the life 
immortal wills as man. That life who by finite 
will wins the worth purposed for life on earth wins 
wider life. Then wider life is won by man's free 
will, for man is the life on earth. This life is won 
by life personal, man's life of immortal self, and 
that which Higher Will purposes for life immortal, 
wider personal life, is won by man's free will. 
Then by man's free will (which is life's free will, 
for life on earth wills as man), is won the higher 
life of personal self. Think, who will for life to- 
day, think well. 

Man who wills for life worthy wills by free will 
his own. Man who is life immortal wins the worth 
that life immortal is purposed to attain on earth. 
That he win for life immortal firm purpose God 
wills; that he, while his work he finishes, find pur- 

123 



124 Man, The Life Free 

pose firm for worth God wills; yet his will God 
makes wholly free. Then man when he wishes 
fulfills the purpose for life of its Maker. 
When by man's free will life wins that worth 
which Higher Will purposes, his life fulfills the 
purpose of God. Why then wait to will for life 
worthy, man who is life to-day? You win for life 
the worth for life higher if thus you wish. Think 
then, and think well, man of earth. 

Wilberforce. 

Will Higher makes life man. By free will man 
wins his worth, for God makes him free. Will free 
that man uses is free will of life. By life's free 
will, then, man wins that worth for wider life 
which God purposes. Worth for the higher life 
purposed by God is, and must be won by life who 
is free. Then while life is man it finds that worth 
which permits wider life. While life wills on earth 
it is man ; while life wills as man it finds that worth 
for higher life which God purposes. Being life 
personal, being life free then, that worth will, and 
must be found by man's free choice. For that 
worth which Higher Will purposes man wills as 
life free. His life wills as he wills. Then his will, 
and that will is life's will, wins the higher life which 
God purposes. 

Will Higher, whose purpose fife fulfills, made 



Will of Life Man Has 125 

life man for earth. Will Higher rules life which 
He made both while it is man on earth and for- 
ever. Will Higher purposes for life while life is. 
Then that which He purposes life fulfills, for His 
will is omnipotent. Why then may life who must 
fulfill God's purpose will for worth or unworthi- 
ness as it pleases? Man was made free; that an- 
swers. Then that which Higher Will purposes 
life fulfills using free will. God purposes for life 
worth for life wider ; that worth life attains willing 
for itself ; then life whom God made fulfills by free 
will His purpose. Man who is life for earth has 
for his must to find the worth that frees life im- 
mortal from man. That free will which God makes 
life's power finally fulfills His will. All lives find 
the worth for freedom while life wills as man. 
While life wills on earth it finds by God's purpose 
that worth which brings wider, fuller life. Man 
wins that worth by his free will. Think, man who 
is life. You will for that worth when you thus wish. 
Think well, O man. 

Will free man has, life's free power. That power 
wins life's worth always. This time of life where 
it is man, this time when life may win worth, the 
man who is life wins that worth if he thus wishes. 
Think then, man who is life. Free your life you 
may this time. Is it worth work hard to do this? 
Think, man who is life, think.

WORTH OF LIFE IN MAN 



WORTH OF LIFE IN MAN 

Dr. Coulter. 

HE who made life man wills that while 
life is man it find the worth for higher, 
fuller life. Man's will free was made 
his power that he will worth for himself. 
Will free was made man's power by Him who 
purposes for life of man worth. Would life free 
win forced worth? Would forced life win worth 
at all? Would that which life must find to fulfill 
God's purpose be forced worth? The will which 
He who purposes for life worth made free wins 
that worth. Then life free fulfills God's purpose. 
Man, the free life, wills for worth when he wishes ; 
man, the bound life, wills for worth when his life 
is taught wise use of free will. God teaches that 
free life for whom He purposes worth. By the 
work of man, by the weak will of man, by the weak- 
ness that brings to the life penalty, He teaches life 
wisdom. Man who knows he is free wills that 
worth which life is by its Maker purposed. Man, 
the free life, wins by free will the fuller life. Then 

129 



130 Man, The Life Free 

man who wills this time for worth wins for his life 
immortal the higher, fuller, worthier life of free- 
dom. 

He who made man life made him life free. He 
who made man free life purposes for that life which 
He made. He who made life for worth wills that 
life win by free will its worth. Will free, then, 
fulfills for life the purpose of its Maker. Will free 
makes life that is by God purposed higher life than 
that of earth worthy that higher life. Man who 
wills for worth when he wishes is life that finds 
worth by God's purpose. Man's free will finally 
makes life worthy wider life. Will free, will made 
life's power by the Life who is Infinite, wins for 
life the finite worth purposed when that life was 
made. Man who is life, think. What use will you 
make of that will free which must make that life 
worthy higher life? You will for life this time of 
life on earth. Will free, your own free will may, 
if thus you firmly purpose, win for your life im- 
mortal the higher life of freedom. Think well, 
O man. 

Man, who is life personal, has for his power 
the will of life personal. His life, being willed 
life, being also willed its free will, has for its must 
to fulfill by free will the purpose of its Maker. 
Life who wills using free will finally wills as its 
Maker purposes. Free will fulfills for life the 



Worth of Life in Man 131 

purpose of Him who made it free. God wills; 
that which He made fulfills as He wills, by the 
wise use of its willed free will, His purpose. Wise 
the life becomes while it wills as man on earth. 
Wise life, taught wisdom by the purpose of its 
Maker, fulfills His purpose. Man who is free 
wins for his life personal the higher life of per- 
sonal self. Will free, that power which He who 
made life wills to be that life's power, fulfills finally 
His purpose that life win the worth which frees it 
from earth. His purpose who made life free life 
free fulfills. 

He who willed life into being wills for that life 
while He permits it being. Will free He made 
the life's power, will that the life uses while it is. 
Then His purpose for life must by the will that 
He made life's power be fulfilled. Man, who wills 
as he wishes always, wins for life the wider life 
purposed by life's Maker. Then will free of man 
fulfills the purpose which life must fulfill on earth. 
That worth which God purposes that life win on 
earth it wins using free will. Always its worth 
is won by free will. God wills for life, and His 
purpose life fulfills by the way He wills, the free 
use of the power will which He makes life's power. 
All that He who wills for life purposes that life 
fulfills. But while it is man free will it may use 
weakly, for He who made life man made life free. 



132 Man, The Life Free 

The will which life uses in man, taught wisdom by 
God's purpose, wins the worth that by His pur- 
pose life finds while it is man. That which life finds 
of God's purpose it wins, through His purpose 
also, using free will its own. Man wills that which 
God purposes that life will when he, as life, is 
taught by his work and life of earth. Taught life 
wills as its Teacher purposes finally. Will free 
finally fulfills for life the purpose of its Maker, 
God. 

Man free wills the worth of life on earth. He 
who wills to-day is life personal, life immortal. 
Will free he has from Him who purposes that life 
win the worth for freedom from earth. What has 
life to find to fulfill the purpose of its Maker? 
Worth for higher life. Worth of life free will 
necessarily be found through wise use of the life's 
free will. That wise use God purposes, but wise 
use man chooses when he thus wishes. Yet life 
free fulfills the purpose of God. Willing its worth 
by its will free, life personal wins wider life. Man 
who is life on earth wills that worth himself, but 
man wills unworthily perhaps. Has life then ful- 
filled God's purpose? Has free will then been 
used as God purposes? That free life win higher 
life, that free life win worth to eternity life's Maker 
purposes. Then life while it wills on earth finds 
by wise use of its free will that worth which God 



Worth of Life in Man 133 

purposes for life on earth. That worth found, life 
wins higher life. That firm, wise free will which 
makes life worthy for yet wider life is found, and 
must be found while life is man. God purposes, 
and life fulfills finally His purpose. 

Wilberforce. 

Man who has free will is life of free will. God 
wills for life that free will win its worth, for He 
made life personal self. Then forced worth life is 
not purposed, but worth won by life's free will. 
He who purposes for life made life free ; His pur- 
pose life free fulfills. Worth which life finds it 
finds of free choice. Man who wills for life wins 
for life its worth using life's free will. That will 
which life uses while it is man is man's free will. 
He who purposes for life worth purposes that the 
life free win that worth, and His purpose life ful- 
fills willing for itself that worth. He who made 
life free teaches the life wise use of free will. Life 
wins that worth which God purposes, then, taught 
by His purpose wisdom in use of free will. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life worth won by 
its free will, was when life made was not. He who 
willed life into being was when the Universe was 
not. His will, the will of Omnipotence, wills for 
all that He made. Will for life worthy He pur- 
poses that life find while it is man on earth. Free 



134 Man, The Life Free 

is the life made. By free will that its Maker gives 
it life fulfills His purpose. Well life wills on 
earth finally. Will free taught by life on earth, 
free will taught wisdom by God's purposed teach- 
ing, wins for life the higher life purposed by God 
when life was by Him made. Man who is wholly 
free, for he is life whom God made free, wins for 
life personal, his immortal life, the worth by which 
that life is made worthy the higher life purposed 
by God. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes for life 
while it is. Man, life immortal, who finds through 
his work teaching that helps both him and lif e itself, 
man the life for whom life wider is purposed, wins 
the worth which prepares for wider life using his 
free will. His free will is life's free will. His 
worth becomes life's worth. His wise free will 
wins for life the worth purposed by life's Maker. 
That worth which man by free will wins frees life 
from earth. God wills that freedom be won by 
man, the life for whom free will is made help. 
While life freely wills on earth life finds the worth 
which God purposes, the worth for wider life, and 
life's free will, made life's power for help, fulfills 
God's purpose when man well and wisely uses it 
for worth. Win freedom life may then if this man 
firmly uses his free will, for that which makes life 
worthy wider life is the worth won by man. 



Worth of Life in Man 135 

Will Higher places life made by Him in man 
who lives earth life. What purposes He for that 
life? Will firm, purpose firm, worth for wider, 
fuller, more glorious life. What for life purposes 
He? Man's life of work, man's life of weary work 
perhaps, and by that work firm purpose found. 
What purposes He for life? Weak will for life 
worthy overcome, weak purpose not used. For 
what life wills man by His purpose? For wide 
life, freed from weakness, full with worth won by 
free purpose, worth far beyond man's thought. 
Then, man who has free will, think well. God's 
purpose for life you may fulfill while this man is 
life. For what then would the man purpose who 
wishes wider life? For his man's life worthy. All 
life fulfills God's purpose finally. Your life will 
fulfill His purpose, but this man, you who purpose 
this time of life on earth, may, if thus you wish, 
fulfill God's purpose that your life immortal find 
worth for the wider, fuller, happier life of freedom. 
Think well then, man of life immortal, think well. 

Will Higher, whose purpose life whom He made 
finally fulfills, was when life was not made. His 
purpose that which He willed being must fulfill. 
Well the life willed being by Him wills for itself 
finally. His purpose the life willed to be free ful- 
fills, winning its worth itself. Man, who is the 
life willed, whose power, will, He who made him 



136 Man, The Life Free 

life made free, fulfills by that free power His pur- 
pose. Though many men will weakly for the one 
life, that life finally wills well. Man, who uses for 
his worth the free power of life immortal, by that 
free power wins for life immortal the higher life 
purposed by Will Higher when He made life. 
Will free fulfills for life the purpose of its Maker. 
Life finite, willed free will by the Life Infinite, ful- 
fills itself His purpose. 

Will Higher, who willed life into being, purposes 
for that life while it wills as man, while it wills for 
the life wider. Forever Will Higher purposes for 
life willed being by Him. That which life finds 
freely willing, the worth for wider life, it finds 
through the purpose of its Maker. Then life 
forced wills worth? No, free life wills the worth 
which God purposes. Will for life personal is made 
free. Will for life worthy is will free wisely used 
by life personal. Wide worth life finds willing for 
itself. While it wins that worth wide life becomes 
through the wise use of free will? No, wide life 
becomes by the purpose of its Maker. Yet life 
wins the worth for better life using for its worth 
the free will given by its Maker. Man wins by his 
free will the worth which life finds on earth. From 
life of earth freed forever, self of man, life personal 
still when freed, wins the wider worth purposed by 
God wisely using the free will which won its worth 



Worth of Life in Man 137 

for freedom from earth. Well life finally wills 
on earth. Then freed, and willing for worth firmly 
forever, life personal fulfills thus the purpose of 
its Maker, God. 

Miltiades. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, man's Maker (for 
life on earth He wills to be man), was when life 
which wills for itself was not made. Will Higher, 
life's Wilier, made life's will free. Man who is life 
for earth wills for that worth which God purposes 
using the free will which God makes his power. 
Will free, will willed to be free, makes life made by 
Will Higher worthy the higher life purposed by 
Will Higher. What food for thought! Man who 
has from Life Infinite his finite life, man who wills 
finitely being made finite life, man whose purpose 
and will were by God made powers of life itself, 
wins finally, using those powers, the higher life 
purposed by God. Will Higher, who wills for life 
while it is, made man for life worthy? No, made 
life for worth. Man wins, however, the worth that 
God purposes for life on earth using life's free 
power. Life purposed wider, fuller, worthier life, 
wins on earth the worth which prepares for the 
higher, worthier, fuller life purposed when life was 
by God willed to be man. Will free, life's will, man 
uses for the worth which wins wider, fuller, worthier 



138 Man, The Life Free 

life. Help men to understand, we pray Thee, O 
God. 

Will for life worthy man finds. That his life win 
that will God purposes ; that life win that will while 
it is life of man He purposes. When free life wins 
the worth which its Maker purposes that it shall 
win while it is man, He frees the life from earth. 
His purpose life free fulfills. Man, the life, wins 
finally that worth which brings freedom for life 
itself. Man, the life free, wins himself that worth 
which makes personal self worthy higher life. Will 
of life in man, will that man uses while life is man, 
wins for that life the wider, better life. Think, 
man who wills for life, think. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, wills for life which 
He made that by will free it win the worth that 
it finds while it is man. That worth frees life from 
man; yet by man's free will that worth is finally 
found. Will for life worthy, purposed will for life 
while it is man, wins by God's purpose life's worth 
for freedom from man and earth. By will free life 
wins the worth purposed by its Maker. Will free, 
life's willed free power, fulfills finally God's pur- 
pose for life of man. While life wills as man on 
earth it finds that worth which permits freedom 
from man. Will for life worthy, will that life finds 
for itself, makes that life worthy the higher, fuller 
life purposed from the willing of all. Man, the 



Worth of Life in Man 139 

life who wills freely while he works on earth, is life 
who finally wins the worth which frees life from 
man and earth. Will for life worthy found as He 
who wills for life purposes, by the life who thus 
wishes, wins for that life the wider life which He 
who made life free purposes. Man using for worth 
firmly his free will thus fulfills God's purpose for 
life on earth. 

Will Higher purposes for the life whom He 
made far wider life than that of man. That wider 
life begins when man has won for life immortal 
worth for freedom. Will for life worthy life finds 
by God's purpose, yet finds it of man's free will. 
Well for life the man will purpose who wishes the 
first wider life of self. His will for life worthy will 
be firm, his purpose for life worthy will be firm. 
Man himself wins the first worth of immortal life, 
which first worth wins life's first wider life. Then 
firm, full of will to keep worthy, happily purposing 
to win yet wider life, self thanks life's Maker for- 
ever for His purpose. What food for thought we 
give you, O men. Heed well our words.

WILL FREE FULFILLS GOD'S PUR- 
POSE 



WILL FREE FULFILLS GOD's PURPOSE 

Dr. Coulter. 

MAN, who is life for earth, wins by his 
free will the worth which God purposes 
that life on earth shall find. Man, who 
wills that which he pleases, is life for 
whom God's purpose is the must. When life ful- 
fills the purpose of its Maker, free will has made 
life worthy. Man is life for whom wider life is 
by God purposed. He wills for his worth by free 
will, being made life of free will. His free will 
is by Higher Will ruled then? No, free is the will 
of life always. Yet the free will fulfills God's pur- 
pose. Then life made free has the must of God's 
purpose for its must. That must is that of free will 
life fulfill His purpose. Then man who wills of 
free will chooses the worth which God purposes 
finally. When life free to choose worth or un- 
worthiness chooses worth it fulfills the higher pur- 
pose of Him who made it free. But life free in 
will has the purpose of God for its must. How 
may that be? men may think. Man wills by will 

143 



144 Man, The Life Free 

given by life's Wilier. Life free to will as it 
wishes finally wills as God purposes. Then life free 
finally wills as God purposes by free will. Must 
compels life then? Yes, but life is taught wisdom 
by its Maker. When life is by Higher Purpose 
taught wise use of free will it chooses worth. 
Higher purpose of Him who made life is finally by 
free will of life fulfilled. Then life which wills 
as it wishes finally wishes to fulfill God's purpose. 
Man who has free will by that free will makes life 
which is purposed worth ready for the wider, fuller 
life which, from the willing of all, God purposed. 
Will Higher, man's Maker, was when life of 
man was not. His will, the will of Life Infinite, 
wills for the life made finite. That which life finite 
wills is willed by the power made his by Life In- 
finite. Man has for will given power. His use 
of that power, free though it be, is by Higher Will 
limited. Then life finite must will within the limit 
set by Life Infinite, and the will which is by Will 
Higher made free fulfills as Will Higher wills 
His purpose. Man who is life finite has will made 
his, and that will fulfills, as the Higher Will pur- 
poses, His will. God, who is Will Higher, made 
life finite. Life finite fulfills God's will by the 
power, free will, which God makes life's power. 
Will free, made free by Higher Will, fulfills the 
Higher Will. Then life while it is man wills that 



Will Free Fulfills God's Purpose 145 

which, by God's purpose, it must will. Man, the 
life, fulfills the purpose of life's Maker by will 
made free. 

Man who wills with willed power, free will, who 
has for his use life's free power, makes his life 
worthy by that power. His will, being willed power, 
will be while he uses it subject to the will of Him 
who gives it. But that would make free will bound. 
That would not mean bound will, for free life is 
while it wills, we know. All lives use free will by 
which to win that worth which Higher Will pur- 
poses. Life free fulfills God's purpose; life free 
wins higher, worthier, fuller life. Man wills 
his worth himself, though that worth is by Higher 
Will purposed. Man knows his will is free. Man 
who uses free will fulfills the purpose of the Wilier 
of his life. Man who wills worth when he wishes 
wins finally that worth which brings for life immor- 
tal freedom from earth. Man who is wholly free 
wins for his life personal, his immortal self, higher, 
worthier, fuller life. Thank God we do who have 
won this life for His purpose that life free win 
wider life. Man free, life free fulfill God's will, 
and all lives made by Him finally fulfill His will. 

Man who wills using his free power, who wills 
that which he himself wishes, is life who must fulfill 
the purpose of its Maker ; yet to that life its Maker 
gives free will. That life win its purposed worth 



146 Man, The Life Free 

using free power God wills. Life fulfills the will 
of its Maker, using the power which He makes 
free. Will for life worthy is finally won by the 
life free to will as it pleases. Will for life worthy 
life finds while it wills as man, for life's Maker 
purposes that that will be found on earth. Free 
will, made life's power by its Maker, finally fulfills 
His purpose for that life. 

Will Higher, whose purpose life finally fulfills, 
was when life made by Him was not. Life made 
has powers willed. Man, who is the life for earth, 
wills, then, using the willed power of life made. 
His will, being free, was made free; his purpose, 
which he uses for the worth which life finds while it 
wills on earth, is willed power. Man, the life on 
earth, wills as the Maker of life purposes then, 
for that which He who made life purposes for the 
life made that life fulfills. Yet life was made free, 
and that free will which He who made life wills to 
be free fulfills His purpose. When life taught 
wise use of free will wins the wider life purposed 
by life's Maker man wills. Though life be free, 
life finally wills for the worth which God purposes ; 
man is life for earth ; then finally life, as man, wills 
that which wins the wider life purposed by God 
when He made life. Though man will weakly, life 
finally wills well. Each man wills as he pleases. 
Life taught wise use of free will finally wills for 



Will Free Fulfills God's Purpose 147 

the worth which God purposes. Life is taught that 
wise use while it is man. Then while life is man 
on earth wise use of free will, purposed wise use 
(for thus Will Higher purposes) is learned, and 
man, the life made, who wills always using free 
will, finally wills the worth which wins freedom 
from earth for life immortal. 

The personal will of man makes life personal 
worthy wider, fuller life. That will, made man's 
power by the Wilier of his life, wins, when man 
wisely uses it, that worth which fits life personal 
for higher life. That will, made free by God, wins 
for life its worth when man thus wishes, for life 
free wins its worth itself. Wide life becomes 
when freed, high its purpose. Wise the life be- 
comes when taught by God's teaching. Man who 
wills the worth of life on earth thus fulfills for 
life the purpose of its Maker. When life free wins 
worth that fits it for wider life God translates it 
to the wider, fuller life. But man himself, man 
who wills for worth when he thus pleases (for he 
is made free life by God), must win the personal 
worth which makes personal life worthy the wider, 
fuller life. Man himself wins freedom, then, for 
life immortal.. 

Will Higher made life free of will, free to will 
worth or unworthiness then; but the purpose of 
Omnipotent Will is by the will of life made ful- 



148 Man, The Life Free 

filled. Man who wills as he wishes is life bound by 
God's purpose, and will that God made free is will 
that fulfills the purpose of Him who made it free. 
How would life willed freedom find worth? By 
free will. How would life willed worth, yet made 
free, find worth? By free will. What for life pur- 
poses God, its Maker? That by free will life ful- 
fill His purpose. Then man, who is life while life 
wills on earth, wins the worth which God purposes 
for life there using his free will. For that worth 
which life finds by the purpose of God life wills 
of free will. Then life free thus fulfills God's pur- 
pose. Man wills the worth of life on earth ; by free 
will that worth is won; thus will free, made man's 
power by Will Higher, fulfills for life the purpose 
of Will Higher. Man, then, who wills for life on 
earth, fulfills God's purpose when he wills for 
worth. All life finally fulfills God's purpose. But 
man who wills unworthily has not fulfilled God's 
purpose, and his life waits for freedom. That 
which for life fulfills God's purpose is man's free 
will; thus Will Higher wills. Then life while it 
wills as man finally wills that which makes life wor- 
thy. For that worth which life finds by Higher 
Purpose it wills of its free will, thus fulfilling as 
He wills the higher purpose of its Maker. 

Man who wills of free will has his will from God, 
his Maker. Will, the power of personal self, will 



Will Free Fulfills God's Purpose 149 

which man uses for life, his Maker makes his power. 
Will that is life's will man has, for life while it is 
on earth is man. Will Higher, man's Maker, pur- 
poses for that life which he made man worth for life 
wider won by the free will that He makes life's 
power. Man then, the life on earth, wills the worth 
purposed by God for life on earth. While life wills 
as man it finds firm purpose for life worthy, willed 
to find firm purpose by life's Maker; yet life wins 
of free will that purpose. His purpose who made 
life free is fulfilled by the free will that He gives 
life. Man, then, when his free will makes his man's 
life worthy, fulfills the purpose of the Life Infinite, 
God. 

Man who wills of free will is life that, by the pur- 
pose of its Maker, wins wider life than that of 
earth. Man, who wills using the free will of life 
personal, wins by his wise use of that free will his 
worth. When will free is well and firmly used for 
life worthy by man, life immortal wins the wider 
life which God purposes. While life wills as man 
that wider life is won. By man's free will that 
wider life is won. Think, man who wills for life 
immortal. That wider life is, and must be won 
by man. You will for life what it becomes this time 
on earth. Why then will unworthily? Wise will 
well used frees life, weak will unworthily used 
keeps life to earth. Think well, O man, think well. 



150 Man, The Life Free 

Wilberforce. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, life's Wilier, wills 
for that life while it wills, free to will as it pleases. 
Man who finds worth finds it by his free will. God 
wills for life that, freely willing, it win the higher 
life which for life He purposes. Man wills using 
the will made his, free will. Then life who wins 
higher life has won it by its own free will. 

Will Higher, who made life for earth man, rules 
that life while it is. But He made life free in will. 
Then life willed worth by Higher Will finds that 
worth of free will. Man, the life, finally wills for 
worth. Self personal, life for worth purposed, 
must by free will find that worth. 

Will Higher, whose purpose all that He made 
fulfills, was Life Infinite when life finite He willed 
into being. Life willed by Him fulfills as He wills 
His purpose. Man who wills using the free will 
which He gives, man who fulfills God's purpose by 
his free choice, is life which was made free. Then 
will free fulfills the purpose of Him who made life 
free. Then life who wills unworthily fulfills not 
God's purpose. What for that life then? Penalty 
of life on earth again, penalty of life weak perhaps 
again. For life who wills unwisely He who made 
life free exacts penalty. What for the life who 
fulfills as He wills His will? Life higher, work 



Will Free Fulfills God's Purpose 151 

higher, worth fuller. Heed the word, man who 
purposes for life to-day. Will free must make life 
worthy, purpose free must keep life worthy if you 
would win higher life. Think well, O man. 

Will free, man's power, finally wins for life its 
worth for wider, fuller life. Will free wins for life 
its worth forever. Man wills for life while life is 
on earth. Life wills forever with the will that man 
uses while life is man on earth. Man himself, who 
wills for life while life is working on earth, wins 
by his free will the worth which brings for life its 
wider life, freed from weakness, freed from life 
unworthy, thankful forever for God's purpose that 
it find freedom willing for its worth itself. Man 
who wills as life, think, and think well. 

Man whose power, will, is life's free power, man 
who is life for earth, man who wills for life while 
he is life on earth, man the life made by Will 
Higher, wills when the life win will firm for the 
worth purposed by God. When life finds firm, 
wise free will, life wins the worth which frees from 
earth. Wide life becomes when freed from earth, 
wide its vision, full and firm its purpose to keep 
worthy. Wide the worth attained finally by its 
free will and purpose. But while life wills there 
where it is man it first wins firm free will. Wise, 
firm, free will wins life's worth while it is man, 
while it is. Man who is life, think. This time of 



152 Man, The Life Free 

life on earth will firm, wise free will, may be worn 
The man who thus wishes wins that will. Think 
well then, you who use to-day life's free will. To- 
day life may win firm, wise, free will. This time 
will firm would win freedom. Then think well, O 
man. 

Happy the life who wins freedom. Wise the life 
who wills for life worthy. Wide the life when 
freed, high its purpose, wise its will. Keep firm 
then, you who would win freedom. This time of 
life on earth you, life immortal, win the wider, hap- 
pier life if you thus purpose. Keep firm, man who 
has life to free, keep firm. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, who purposes for life 
while it is, wills that life free by free will fulfill 
His purpose. Man who is life for earth, who wills 
the worth of life on earth then, finds that worth 
by free choice. Man willed to win freedom for life, 
willed free will his own, by his free will wins the 
purposed worth of life on earth. Then this man 
may win the worth that frees life by his will. He 
was willed that he thus use it? No, his free will he 
uses for worth when he thus chooses. Life free, 
made free by Him who purposes for life worth, 
wins the purposed worth when life thus wishes. 
All life finally wins that purposed worth; all life 
fulfills God's purpose; yet this life wins its worth 
when it thus chooses. Free will made life's power 



Will Free Fulfills God's Purpose 153 

by Him who made life finally wins for life its worth 
for wider life, and life willed freedom finds worth 
for freedom by its own free will. 

Will for life worthy life finds while it is man; 
thus life's Maker purposes. Man who is life for 
earth wins by his life worthy wider life for personal 
self immortal. Then by man's free will life per- 
sonal wins wider, fuller, happier life. Think, man 
who wills for life to-day. Why will for life un- 
worthy? You win freed life when you will well 
and firmly for your man's life. Think well, O 
man. 

When life wins this life it wins that which it is 
purposed by Will Higher to win. This life wills 
firmly, for life won firm purpose on earth. This 
life wills for life worthy always, for that firm pur- 
pose which keeps life worthy was won while life 
was man. While life is, firm purpose is help. 
While life wills to keep worthy it wins wider and 
wider life. Think, man who is life immortal. 
While life keeps worthy it wins wider and wider 
life. Man by his firm purpose wins for life per- 
sonal its first wider life. Then, firm forever, life 
wins finally worth for its Maker's presence. This 
future life is willed by God. But that firm purpose 
which wins this future must be won while life is 
man. Think then, man who is life immortal, think 
well. 



154 Man, The Life Free 

Miltiades. 

Will Higher wills for life which He made worth 
won by itself. Man, the life on earth, finds worth 
by his free choice. Life which is by Higher Will 
made free fulfills His purpose using free will. 
Would this mean that life forced to worth finds 
it? No, worth purposed by Higher Will must by 
free will be won, since man is willed that way to 
worth. Then life for which worth is by Higher 
Will purposed finds that worth when it pleases. 
That worth which life must find life finds using 
free will, and God's purpose is fulfilled by life 
which wills free to will as it wishes. But what life 
wins the worth which fulfills God's purpose? That 
life who wins worth, choosing worth; that life ful- 
fills the purpose of God. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life worth found 
by its own free will, made life free. He wills for 
life which he made free will its own; He wills for 
life worth won by itself; His purpose free will ful- 
fills. Man, the life personal, using will wholly free 
wins that worth which life has for must to win. 
He who willed life, who gives free will, made life 
who wills of free will for worth, and life finds the 
worth it must find by free will its own. 

Man who wills of free will fulfills by free will the 
purpose for his life of Higher Will. Man who 



Will Free Fulfills God's Purpose 155 

uses free will for his worth wins finally by that 
free will the worth which God purposes for life on 
earth. God purposes that life free win wider life; 
His purpose life fulfills using the power which 
He makes life's power, free will. That life who 
wills as it pleases wins worth for the wider life 
which God purposes. Thus all lives win freedom. 
Man wills that worth which frees life when he 
wishes, but life who has for must to win that worth 
finally fulfills its must. God wills, and all that 
He made fulfills His will. 

Will free, life's power, man uses while life wills 
on earth. Then free will which man uses fulfills 
finally God's purpose for life on earth. His free 
will man uses for worth when he thus wishes. Then 
life fulfills God's purpose when the man thus 
wishes. Free life is while it wills, free forever life 
is, but by free will it fulfills God's purpose while 
it is man and forever. Life willed being by Him 
who made all that is beside Himself fulfills by free 
will, willed to be its power by its Maker, His pur- 
pose. Free will, made life's power by God, fulfills 
His purpose for life forever. Man who wills for 
life, think. Why wait to fulfill the purpose of God 
that your life find freedom? Your own free will 
wins for you, the life, that worth which brings free- 
dom. Think well, O man. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life worth, Will 



156 Man, The Life Free 

Higher who wills that life find the purposed worth 
of free will its own, wills, while life works on earth, 
that work teach life. Will firm, will purposed to 
be firm finally, but will firm found by life's free 
purpose, wins life's worth. Wise the life becomes 
when taught by God's teaching. Wise life wins 
freedom because wise life wills as God purposes. 
Would this life who is man now become wise? The 
purposed work of man teaches if life firmly wills 
to finish it well. Each life finds work that teaches 
if it thus pleases. When will firm life finds, when 
firm will keeps life worthy, then life fulfills God's 
purpose. Then this man who is life to-day finds 
firm will to fulfill the purpose of God if he thus 
wishes. Free to will for worth or unworthiness 
always, but taught finally by the work and life of 
man on earth, personal life, man's life of self, wins 
finally by free will wisely and firmly used the wider 
life which God purposes. Think well, who will for 
life to-day, think wisely. Your free will this time 
well and wisely used will win freedom. Man who 
wills for life, think well. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, purposes for life 
while it wills on earth as man. He purposes for 
life while it is. Then man, who wills using the 
power willed to him by his Maker, by that power 
fulfills his Maker's purpose. Life who fulfills its 
Maker's purpose He rewards with wider, fuller, 



Will Free Fulfills God's Purpose 157 

happier life. Will for life worthy to-day, man who 
would be wise. You fulfill then God's purpose 
for life of man. Help this word for help by Thy 
blessing, we pray Thee, O God. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, whose purpose life 
fulfills, was when life made by Him was not. His 
purpose life fulfills as He wills, using for its worth 
its own free will. Then man fulfills that purpose 
thus, for he is life for earth. But man uses free 
will unworthily many times. His will then fulfills 
not the purpose of his Maker. Would free will 
forced be right thought? You know that will is 
free who have will. But that free will was made 
your power by life's Maker whose purpose life ful- 
fills while it is man. You may fulfill that purpose 
and win life wider. Then this man who wills for 
worth when he thus wishes finds his life freed when 
he thus wills? Yes, for life was willed wider life, 
willed free will, and will made life's power by God 
wins for that life its wider life when man wisely, 
uses it. Think well, man who would find life higher. 
You yourself, when you thus wish, win for your 
life its freedom. Think well, O man. 

That free will by which man makes his life wor- 
thy God gives to life. Man wins by given will the 
purposed worth that life finds on earth. His wise 
free will makes life worthy in man. His wise free 
purpose keeps life worthy. Then that which by 



158 Man, The Life Free 

God's purpose life in man must win it wins through 
man's wise use of free will and purpose. That 
higher life purposed for life by God life wins by 
man's wise use of life's free will and purpose. 
Then this man who is life to-day wins, if he thus 
wishes, that worth which permits to life the higher 
life of freedom. 

Will free, life's power, man has, for he is life on 
earth. Will free, life's power, man has by which 
to make life worthy wider life. Will free, life's 
power, man has by the will of life's Maker. Will 
free, life's power, man uses for life worthy. On 
earth life wins freedom. While life wills as man 
it wins the worth for wider life purposed by God, 
life's Maker. Will free, life's power, life uses 
while life wills for the life wider purposed by God. 
Life wills in man many times. Will for life wor- 
thy is finally won. Life for whom God purposes 
wider life wins the worth for the purposed wider 
life using its own free will. Man, the life on earth, 
finally wills as God purposes. While life wills as 
man life worthy is surely won. Help men to will 
well, for they need Thy help, God who made life 
man, we pray Thee. 

Man who wills his worth himself, man who wills 
his life worthy when thus he wishes, is life who by 
God's purpose wins that life worthy. Man who is 
life personal wins by his free will the wider life of 



Will Free Fulfills God's Purpose 159 

personal self, for man wills the life worthy that 
wins that wider life. Man who wills for himself 
wills as life personal; as he wills life wills; his life 
wins worth by the will which man uses. Then the 
will which man uses will win for life personal the 
wider life purposed by life's Maker. What food 
for thought this! Man, who wills his life worthy 
when thus he wishes, by thus willing wins for his 
life immortal far wider life than that of earth. 
Think well then, man who is life, think well.

WILL HIGHER RULES LIFE WHILE

WILL HIGHER RULES LIFE WHILE IT IS 

Dr. Coulter. 

WILL Higher, life's Maker, wills that 
life on earth be man. His will that 
life fulfills while it is. By Him life 
was made life. His will governs all 
life that wills. He gives to life free will its own. 
He gives to life free purpose its own. His will rules 
the life whom He made free, and that which He 
purposes for life the life fulfills using the free 
powers He gives. Man, the life who wills and pur- 
poses as he wishes, while he lives the life of earth 
fulfills the purpose of God for his life. Then, while 
life wills as man, by the free will and purpose which 
man uses life wins the wider life purposed for im- 
mortal self when life was by Will Higher made. 
Will Higher wills; that which He made He gov- 
erns while it is. 

Wilberforce. 

Will Higher made life man, purposes for life 
while it is man, purposes for life when it has found 

163 



164 Man, The Life Free 

freedom from earth, and to eternity He purposes 
for the life for whom He willed free will. Has 
the word helped your thought, men who read? 
Will Higher was Life when the life whom He 
made was not. But for that life His eternal pur- 
pose is its must. While life wills using for worth 
the free will He gives, that life fulfills His purpose. 
Will free fulfills for life finite the purpose of Life 
Infinite. 

The will which God makes free fulfills His pur- 
pose. Life while it wills in man fulfills God's pur- 
pose that it win worth, freely willing, for life 
higher. No life fails to win that worth. God's 
purpose for life the life fulfills by its free will. 
All lives fulfill finally, and fulfill by their own free 
will, the higher purpose of God. Man lives the life 
of earth. His purpose will win the worth that 
God purposes for life on earth. Wise life becomes 
while it is man. That life who, willing wisely by 
its free will, wins worth, thus fulfills God's pur- 
pose. 

Will Higher, who wills for all that is, wills for 
life worth won by free will its own. Life purposed 
worth, made free, wins that worth using free will. 
God wills for life will firm, purpose firm. Life 
finds that firm will, finds that firm purpose finally, 
for life obeys the will of its Maker surely. That 
will which God makes free fulfills finally His pur- 



Will Higher Rules Life While It Is 165 

pose. Man wills as he wishes, life wills of free will, 
but taught life wills as its Wilier purposes finally. 
Taught wise use of free will, taught wisdom by 
man's work and life, taught wise free purpose, per- 
sonal self, life willed free will and purpose its own, 
by its own free will fulfills its Maker's purpose. 
When life free wills well, firmly purposing to keep 
worthy, working well the work that God purposes 
as teaching, it wins the wider life purposed by its 
Maker when He willed life into being. 

That which men name the Universe is made the 
Universe by the will of God. By His will life 
works as man. By His will life finishes the work 
of earth and finds higher life. Will Higher wills 
for life free powers for help. By the powers that 
He wills to life life fulfills His purpose. Will 
Higher was when life finite was not. His will all 
that He made fulfills. Omnipotent, He wills for 
life. His purpose the life fulfills as He wills. 
What help for men here ! What food for thought 
here! Will Higher governs that which He made 
forever.

WILL HIGHER WILLS; LIFE MADE 
FREE FULFILLS HIS PURPOSE 



WILL HIGHER WILLS ; LIFE MADE FREE FULFILLS HIS 

PURPOSE 

Dr. Coulter. 

WE who live wider life were men. We 
who tell this thought for men were 
men. This life remembers its earth 
life. We remember what was help 
in man's life, what was harm. Then this life has 
learned what men need to know, what helps and 
what harms the life while it is man. We who were 
men, then, help men by telling what we think men 
need. 

Man has life personal, life free, for personal life 
is necessarily free. Man is life personal who lives 
where life personal is taught wisdom which it will 
need in wider life. Then man, free personal life, 
learns by the life of earth that which wider life finds 
help. Think, who live man's life. We who live 
the higher life of freedom from earth tell for help 
that thought which men need. 

Will Higher was when life made by Him was 
not. His purpose follows that life to eternity. The 
life willed by Him worth finds that worth by the 
way He wills, wise use of the free will He makes 
that life's power. He who made life purposes for 

169 



170 Man, The Life Free 

that life while that life wills using free will. Man 
wills his worth using life's free power. Man finds 
that firm purpose which Will Higher purposes that 
life find on earth. Will Higher wills; that which 
He made fulfills His will. All lives win the life 
freed. While life is man on earth it fulfills by His 
way God's purpose. Man who wills of free will, 
that power willed for life to be its power forever, 
wins that worth which Higher Will purposes for 
life while it is on earth. Will free wins for life the 
worth purposed by life's Maker. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life worth 
won by free will and purpose. That worth fits life 
for higher, worthier life beyond earth. By the 
Higher Purpose of life's Maker life attains that 
worth on earth. Then life attains that worth of 
man's free will and purpose. But worth that life 
thus attains is purposed worth. Then life free at- 
tains worth purposed by Higher Will. Yes; for 
life Higher Will purposes wider life won by its 
free will and purpose, and life who lives on earth 
as man finally attains by free purpose its own that 
higher life which God purposes. The life free wins 
of free will and purpose the worth which wins 
higher life. God wills, and life made by Him ful- 
fills His will. All lives fulfill His will; all lives 
find worth while life wills as man that wins the 
higher life purposed by God. 



Will Higher Wills 171 

Will Higher purposes for life that He made 
while that life is. Then life willed worth must find 
that worth, for God's purpose is fulfilled by all that 
He made. Free will life is given; by free will life 
wins its worth; wise free will, taught by God's 
teaching, fulfills His purpose for life. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 
made life for earth man, willed to life personal 
powers, willed that life be free, willed for life worth 
won by itself. Found there reconciliation between 
Higher Will and man's free will. Life willed 
worth finds worth finally. Life who wills for life 
worthy thus fulfills God's purpose. Life who wills 
for life unworthy waits to fulfill that purpose. 
While life wills for itself the higher purpose of its 
Maker it must fulfill. All life fulfills God's pur- 
pose ; all life is finally taught wise use of free will. 
Man who wills for life worthy wins life wider for 
his personal self; man who wills for life unworthy 
wins life of earth again. Then think, who would 
win life wider. Wise use of your free will wins it. 
Think well, O man. 

That life win by free will the worth purposed by 
God He wills; that life will for life worthy while it 
is man He wills ; that life win freedom by will free 
He wills ; that life win wider and wider life willing 
of free will He wills. Man is life on earth. Then 
man willing as life wins life's first worth, for that 



172 Man, The Life Free 

which man wills life wills. But, being free, man 
wills for life worthy when he thus wishes. Then the 
will of God is fulfilled by life while it is man when 
the man wishes. Higher will of man's Maker will 
be fulfilled by man of free will, and life who wills 
for life worthy while it is man thus fulfills God's 
will. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, purposes for life 
while it is man that it attain worth for fuller life. 
That worth will be won by life while it is man, and 
God's purpose will be fulfilled by that life whom 
He made free. Yet while life is it wills using free 
will. Then while life is that worth which Higher 
Will purposes is won by use of life's free will. All 
lives win worth finally; each life who is man wins 
finally worth for higher life. Man, the life, ful- 
fills the purpose of his Maker, God. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, rules the life whom 
He makes man for earth while that life is. His 
purpose follows that life while it is. Man, the free 
personal life, wills for life wider on earth, purposed 
thus to will, yet life is made free of will. Made 
life fulfills by the willed power, free will, the pur- 
pose for it of its Maker. Willed life, willed power 
free will, willed free purpose, all fulfill the higher 
purpose of Him who made life. For life worthy 
the life wills finally, willed thus to will, yet life wills 
always of free will. That which life wills finally 



Will Higher Wills 173 

using free will life's Maker purposes that it thus 
will. For life free He wills life wider won through 
wise use of its own free will and purpose. Then 
life free fulfills God's will ; that free will which God 
gives fulfills His will; that free purpose which He 
gives fulfills His purpose. We who live wider life 
hold firm the purpose for life worthy found while 
life was man. That which life free wills fulfills 
God's purpose that life win wider and wider life. 
While life is the free will which God gives fulfills 
for life His purpose. We, the lives freed, won this 
life while life was man. We, freed lives, will win 
life still higher by the firm purpose which life won 
while it was man. Think what we tell. We who 
live the wider life won it using free will and pur- 
pose our own. Then, life who would win this happy 
life, firmly will to-day, to-morrow, each day of 
man's life, that life be worthy. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life that He 
made, wills for life worth won of its free choice. 
Man, who wills the worth of life on earth, wills that 
worth using free choice. Man, who lives the life 
of earth, wills for that life and for higher life to 
follow life on earth when by his free will he makes 
life worthy. His will who rules life is by life free 
fulfilled. That worth which He purposes for life 
life wins by wise use of the power He gives, free 
will. Then this life who is man to-day may, if thus 



174 Man, The Life Free 

this man chooses, win the worth purposed for life 
on earth. Think well, O man. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, life's Wilier, was 
when life whom He made was not. His will made 
that which men call the Universe. His will rules all 
that is. By His will man, His creature, wills for 
that wider life which He purposes for immortal 
life. His purpose follows life whom He made 
while it is. Life full with worth He wills for life 
that He made immortal, life worthy His pres- 
ence finally. The life who is man wins that worth 
finally. The life who is this man wins that worth. 
Yet life free wills as it wishes. The Purpose who 
made life wills for life free will, and by will made 
by God free life fulfills His purpose. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, wills for life made 
by Him worth that permits wider life. His will 
life fulfills willing of free will. No life fails to win 
by free will the wider life purposed by God. Then 
this life when it wills firmly for life worthy wins 
wider life, but will unworthily used by this life wins 
but life on earth again. Then, man who is life, 
think. What will have you, that will which wins 
wider life, or that will which wins man's life again? 
Think well, man who is free, think well. 

Man who lives working the work purposed to 
teach life, man who works for both life of earth and 
life wider, man who lives his life willing for that 



Will Higher Wills 175 

which he wishes, is life who by God's purpose wins 
higher, fuller life. Willing its worth itself life wins 
that higher life. Willing while it is man that which 
wins the purposed higher life, the personal worth 
of man, life willed freedom wins freedom. When 
life who wills using free will uses that will for 
life worthy, life thus fulfills the purpose of Will 
Higher for life on earth. Will Higher purposes 
that life free win, while it is man, the life wider 
which He purposed when He made life. Well 
must man will, well for life must man purpose to 
fulfill God's purpose. Then think, who would this 
time on earth win the wider life of freedom. Will 
for life worthy firmly, purpose for life worthy 
firmly; then life can this time win fuller, happier 
life. Think well then, man who would win free- 
dom, think well. 

Man, life personal, wills using free will; man, 
life immortal, is purposed will for life worthy ; life 
worthy, then, man wins by free will. But life free 
wills worth when it thus chooses. Then life, while 
it wills as man, chooses will for life worthy. Man, 
being free, wills by his free will the worth which 
life by God's purpose must will. But free will is 
bound then. No, free will life has from its Maker, 
God. What from this follows? Man, while life is 
on earth, finally wills for life worthy; his free choice 
makes life worthy; life willed worth by God finds 



176 Man, The Life Free 

that worth using free will its own. What worth 
purposes life's Maker for the life made by Him? 
Worth for life wider, worth growing while life 
lasts, worth finally for His presence. That worth 
while life wills using free will it wins. Man, who 
is life immortal, wins for life its first worth, the 
worth which brings first life wider. Will free life 
uses then for that worth which finally fits life for 
its Maker's presence. What food for thought, O 
man, this will give you. Think upon it well. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, life's Wilier, wills 
for life whom He made while that life is. Man, the 
life on earth, fulfills His will. Life when freed 
fulfills His will. No life may for always evade ful- 
filling the will of its Maker. Will Higher was 
when life made by Him was not. Eternal Will, 
Omnipotent Purpose He is. Will Higher rules 
all that is beside Himself. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, who wills for life for- 
ever, purposes for life whom He made free worth 
far wider than that of earth. Man, life personal, 
wills of his free will that worth which permits wider 
life. Man, life personal, wills as life who must 
finally fulfill God's purpose. When by man's free 
will life attains worth for wider life, the will still is 
free. For life worthy life still wills of free choice. 
Will free wins life's worth forever. By will free 
life finally wins that worth which God purposes, 



Will Higher Wills 177 

worth for His presence. Man by his free will wins 
for life its first worth; man by his free will wins 
for life its first wider life. What food for thought 
we give you, O men. Man wins the first worth of 
life personal, life immortal. His free will makes 
life worthy wider life than that of earth. When 
life has won that worth which frees from earth, it 
wins by the free will made firm by man the wider 
worth which fits it for God's presence. Think 
well, man who is life, think well. 

Man wills his worth of life himself, though God 
purposes that he, as life, find worth. Man's will, 
being free, wins that worth which life while it is 
man is purposed to find. Then will free, man's 
power, wins for life that worth which Will Higher 
purposed when He made life man. Man who wills 
his worth by free will is yet life who fulfills the pur- 
pose of Will Higher. Man is life on earth. Then 
man, the life who wills as he wishes, wills finally 
that which life's Wilier purposes. When by life's 
will free man wins that worth which personal life 
must by God's purpose find on earth, Will Higher 
wills for life higher personal worth. Yet while life 
is will is wholly free. Will of life man uses, will 
that life uses while it is. Life free, man's immor- 
tal self, fulfills by wise use of the power which God 
gives His purpose. 



178 Man, The Life Free 

Wilberforce. 

Will Higher, whose purpose life will finally ful- 
fill, made life free. His purpose life fulfills 
through the means He provides. Life personal man 
is made. Life who wills as man is life immortal. 
Wise free will, free will taught wisdom by the 
teaching of life where man wills and works, makes 
life immortal worthy freedom from man and earth. 
That wise free will man finds when he thus chooses. 
Then life free, taught wisdom by God's teaching, 
wins the wider life which by Him was purposed 
when His will made life. 

That life win worth for higher life while it is 
man He who wills for life forever purposes; that 
life win worth by its free will He purposes. When 
free life wills as He purposes free life fulfills the 
will of its Maker. Man, who is life on earth, wins 
by his free will the worth for the wider life pur- 
posed for personal self by life's Maker. What food 
for thought we give you, O men. Think well, for 
then you will profit by our word. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life whom He 
made free, wills that wider life be won by life's own 
free will. His purpose life free fulfills. Man, life 
of personal self, man who is free to will worth or 
unworthiness, while he wills for life personal wins 
the worth for that wider life purposed by God. 



Will Higher Wills 179 

Man, life free, wins wider life willing life's worth 
himself. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, purposes for life 
while it wills of free will. That worth which He 
wills the life finds. When by His teaching life be- 
comes wise, it fulfills by free will His purpose. 
Man, then, wills for life the worth which brings 
wider life, for he wins finally that worth which life 
on earth is by God willed to find. But life in man, 
being free, wins that worth when thus it chooses. 
Why was life willed free will? That it win its 
worth itself. Why was man made free? That his 
free will, life's free will it is, win for life the worth 
which God purposes for life on earth. Think well, 
who would win for life immortal wider life, think 
well. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, purposes for man, 
the life made by Him, that by free will he make 
life immortal worthy higher life. Will free, then, 
wins by man's wise use freedom from earth for per- 
sonal life. When man freely willing makes his 
life worthy, personal self, man's immortal life, wins 
wider, fuller life. Well has life willed when it wins 
this life, well has it purposed. Well then must 
man will and purpose to win life freed. 

That free will by which life finds worth is, for 
life on earth, man's free will. Then this life who 
is this man finds worth that life's Maker purposes 



180 Man, The Life Free 

by man's use of free will. That life who finds will 
the help that God purposes finds life wider. When 
life freely willing makes itself worthy freedom, life 
has fulfilled God's will for life on earth. Then why 
postpone finding worth, you who will for life? 
Why wait to will firmly for life worthy? Your 
will wins for your life the freedom God wills when 
you wisely use it. Think well then, man who is life, 
think well. 

Man who is life personal, who wills for his life 
worthy when he wishes, man, life immortal who 
finds life higher by God's purpose, wins for life 
immortal the worth for higher life using that free 
will which God makes his power. Life wins higher 
life by man's free will. Then this life who is man 
to-day wins higher life if this man wills for life 
worthy. Then this life who is this man wins life 
higher if this man chooses. Think, man who wills 
for life, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes that while 
life wills on earth that worth which permits wider 
life be found. While life wills as man it finds that 
worth surely, for life finds that worth by God's 
purpose. But life, being free, may postpone by 
free choice winning that worth. Then Will Higher 
exacts penalty. What penalty? Man's life again, 
man's work for teaching again, man's little life 
again. For life man wills well when his will is for 



Will Higher Wills 181 

life worthy. Will free wins life wider when the 
man wishes. You who will for life, remember that 
you win by your free will, if you thus wish, the 
higher life of freedom. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, purposes that while 
life is man it win the worth for wider life. Willing 
for worth itself life wins that worth. Then this life 
who is man to-day wins wider life if this man wills 
for life worthy. Have our words helped the man 
who reads? The help he finds depends on himself. 
Think well, man who has life to free, think well. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, wills for life while 
it is man that worth be found by life's free will 
and purpose. His purpose that which He made 
fulfills. Man, the free life, wins finally that worth 
which He who made life man purposes. While life 
is God purposes for it. While life wills using free 
will given by God it wins the worth which He pur- 
poses it shall win. Then this life who is man to-day 
fulfills God's purpose finally, yet this man wills 
for worth when he thus pleases. But this man is 
life who is made to find worth by free will its own. 
Then this life who wills as this man fulfills God's 
purpose if this man thus wishes. Think what we 
tell you, man who is life, think well. 

Will free life uses while it wills as man and for- 
ever. Man, who is life for earth, wins by his will 
free the worth that permits for life personal its 



182 Man, The Life Free 

wider life. Will for life worthy life finds by God's 
purpose. Every life finds that will. But the life 
while it is man, being free, wills for that life worthy 
when the man thus chooses. Then this man who 
wills for life may win that worth which brings fuller 
life. But will this man choose that worth? Life 
finally wins that worth, but would you think life 
may will for unworthiness, and be freed, O man? 
Think well, for then life profits by our word. 

Purpose Higher, purpose of Him who made all 
beside Himself, wills for life its free will. Life 
free fulfills by free will His purpose. Will for life 
worthy life finally finds, for thus purposes Higher 
Will ; yet life free finds that will for life worthy it- 
self. When free will used wisely wins for life the 
worth purposed by Will Higher life finds wider 
life. Man, who is life while life wills on earth, finds 
will for life worthy, then, by God's purpose, and 
that which life free finally wills for itself fulfills 
the higher purpose of life's Maker. This man who 
is life to-day may will unworthily, but life while it 
is man wins that will for life worthy which Higher 
Purpose wills. When depends on man's own wish. 
Think then, man who is life. Will you this time 
win that will for life worthy? Man has free will, 
but life finally wins freedom. This man, then, may 
by his will for life worthy win freedom for his im- 
mortal self, 



Will Higher Wills 183 

Will Higher, who purposes for the life whom He 
made, wills that life by free will win worth for 
wider life. He purposes then for life made free. 
His purpose life free fulfills when that worth it 
finds willing itself. But free life wills well or 
weakly. When it wills well life wins higher life, 
when it wills unworthily life wins but further life in 
man. Then this man who is life to-day wills 
whether life immortal find higher life or life of man 
once more. What would this man wish? His will 
free wins that which he wishes. Think then, man 
who wills for life, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes that while 
life is man it find will for life worthy. No life may 
will for life unworthy always. The purpose of 
Him who rules life forbids that life will unworthily 
always. But life is free while it is. Then life by 
purpose of Him who made it free wills for life wor- 
thy while it is man. What will uses life ? Free will 
always. What worth wins life? Worth purposed 
by God. Will free, then, wins for life who is by 
its Maker purposed worth that worth. Think then, 
man who wills for life immortal. Till will free life 
uses for worth Will Higher wills for it man's life. 
When will free life uses as He purposes it must 
finally He wills for life wider, fuller life. Then 
think what you must will, man who is life, if you 
wish wider life. Think well, O man. 



184 Man, The Life Free 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes for the life 
whom He made while that life is. Man, who is 
that life, wills for his worth by his free will. Man, 
who is that life, wills that worth which God pur- 
poses for that life while it wills on earth. Man, 
who is that life, wins by his worth the wider life- 
purposed by God for that life. When life finds 
worth as man He who purposes for life forever 
frees that life from man and earth. His purpose 
follows that life while it wins personal worth both 
on earth and in wider life. Then wider life pur- 
posed by life's Maker, worth growing wider to 
immortality, worth far wider than life itself 
comprehends while it is man, is won by life 
free. What food for thought we give you, O 
men. Think upon it well. You, the life, win 
finally by will free, the will that you, the man, 
use to-day, that life wider, that worth far wider 
than man may comprehend. What thought for 
help this! You who will for life, think upon it 
well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes that will 
free win life's worth while life is. Man is the life 
on earth. His will, then, wins the worth of life 
on earth. What for life purposes its Maker? 
Wider life, fuller worth, worth for His presence 
finally. May life win that worth by its own free 
will? Only thus may life made win that worth. 



Will Higher Wills 185 

Life free wins finally by wise use of the will God 
makes life's power, free will that is, worth for His 
presence. This word helps the man who will think. 
We tell that life who on earth is man, this life who 
is this man, may, and will finally win worth for 
God's presence. But life for whom that worth is 
purposed wins that worth by its free will. Thought 
helpful, man who is life. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes that by free 
purpose its own life find that worth which frees life 
from earth. He purposes, too, that life find worth 
for His presence by the free purpose which He 
wills to life. Man, who is life while it wills on 
earth, wins for life its first worth. That worth fits 
life for wider life beyond earth. Then by the pur- 
pose which won for life its freedom life wins its 
worth for God's presence. When life finds firm 
purpose as man it takes to wider life firm purpose. 
That firm purpose wins life's worth forever. Think 
what I tell, man who purposes to-day for life. 
Your firm purpose well and wisely used wins for 
life personal its first wider life. Then that firm 
purpose life holds him forever. What food for 
thought, O men. What life finds freedom? This 
life, if this man thus purposes. What life wins 
worth for God's presence? All lives win that 
worth, thank God! But all lives must find firm 
purpose for life worthy on earth. While life is 



186 Man, The Life Free 

man, then, firm purpose must be won if life would 
be freed. What for life purposes its Maker? 
Worth for His presence won by its own firm pur- 
pose, and life first finds firm purpose on earth as 
man. Then, firm forever, life wins worth for God's 
presence. 

Will Higher, life's Wilier, purposes for life far 
higher worth than it finds while it is man on earth. 
What food for thought here, man who is life im- 
mortal! Life who wills freely wins the higher life 
which God purposes using free choice whether 
worth be found or unworthiness. Then life who 
wills that it find worth fulfills God's purpose. But 
when life wills unworthily what for life wills its 
Maker? Work of man again, life on earth again. 
Reincarnation God wills for life who needs the 
teaching which He wills for life while it is man, 
reincarnation that helps life, for by further life 
of man life purposed wise use of free will learns 
that wise use. God wills that teaching for all lives. 
Then when by life's free will wisely used life per- 
sonal wins the worth God purposes, He frees that 
life forever from man and earth. What will has 
the man who is life to-day? That thought will help 
the man who wishes life worthy. 

Help this word for help by Thy blessing, we 
pray Thee, O God. 



Will Higher Wills 187 



Miltiades. 



Will Higher, who wills for life while it is, made 
life for earth man. His purpose life while it is ful- 
fills. His purpose man fulfills then. While life 
wills it wills of free will, for God made life free. 
His purpose life fulfills, then, willing for worth by 
free will. Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes that 
life while it wills as man win worth for wider, fuller 
life. Then life who wills using free will wins worth 
while it is man for wider life. For both man who 
is life and for life freed the Higher Will purposes. 
Then man has Higher Purpose for his must ? No, 
life personal for whom Higher Will purposes has 
that Higher Purpose to fulfill. But while life wills 
on earth it wills as man. Then life who has God's 
purpose to fulfill forever has while it is man His 
purpose to fulfill. But man wills freely, choosing 
that which he wishes. Yes, for life while it is man 
and while it is God made free. Yet, taught by the 
work of man, by the life of man, wisdom in use 
of free will, life finally chooses to will that which 
God purposes. Will Higher purposes that life 
while it wills as man find worth for higher life. 
Man himself wills that worth, for life while it is 
on earth is man. But what has life to purpose to 
fulfill its must? Worth won by free will, worth 
won by man as life. Then for life Will Higher 



188 Man, The Life Free 

purposes wider life won by the free will of this 
man? No, this man chooses perhaps will unwor- 
thy. Then this life works again man's work, and 
this life who wills unworthily wins not the higher 
life. What food for thought here for men! We 
tell that life while it wills as man finds the worth 
for the wider life which God purposes; that man 
wins that worth of free will his own ; that this man 
wins that worth if thus he chooses. Think, man 
who has life to free, think wisely. 

Man, the life free, wins worth for wider life when 
he thus wishes. But life must finally win that 
worth ; God thus wills. Free will He makes man's 
will, and life free finally wills for worth using free 
will. That which Higher Will purposes life free 
fulfills using the free will He gives. Then this life, 
this life who is man to-day, may win the worth 
which God purposes. Life wins freedom when by 
man's free will it becomes worthy. Think well, 
man who has life to free, think well. 

Will for life worthy man finds through his wish 
to find it. Will for life worthy life finds as man 
by God's purpose. But life wills for worth freely. 
Then life while it wills as man fulfills God's pur- 
pose, and wins worth for higher, fuller life, yet life 
wills always by free will. Help men to understand 
this word, we pray Thee, O God. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life while it is, 



Will Higher Wills 189 

wills that life win its freedom willing for its worth 
itself. Man who lives earth life is life of personal 
self. Will free, the power of personal self, wins for 
life its worth. God made life for worth, made life 
free personal self, and the worth which life finds is 
by personal free will won. But life perhaps wills 
unworthily. Will free life may use well or weakly. 
Then the purpose of Him who made life free is 
fulfilled when life wills its worth itself. Will for 
life worthy life finds finally, but life who uses free 
will weakly or unworthily finds penalty. What 
penalty? The life of work on earth again. That 
penalty Higher Will purposes for life who in man 
fails to will for life worthy. Heed the word, man 
who wills for life. Your free will you may use 
well. Then think, and think wisely. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes that free 
will of life win its worth while it is man and for- 
ever. Then this life who is man to-day finds, if 
the man wishes, that firm, wise, free will by which 
life wins its first worth. While life is God purposes 
for it; while life wills of free will He purposes for 
it; when life wins firm, wise, free will, then life ful- 
fills God's purpose. When life finds that firm, 
wise, free will man chooses himself. Then think 
well, who would win freedom for life, think well. 

Will Higher, whose purpose all life fulfills, was 
when life which He made was not. His purpose 



190 Man, The Life Free 

follows life forever. That which He purposes for 
life the life fulfills by its own free will and purpose. 
Then this life who is man to-day fulfills His pur- 
pose, must, for God's will is omnipotent. Yet He 
wills that by its own free will life fulfill His pur- 
pose. Man who is life, think. What will have you 
to-day? Will helps life if you thus wish; will wins 
freedom for life if you thus wish. Think well, man 
who is life, think well. 

Man who lives earth life is life who by God's 
purpose lives after earth wider life. Will free God 
makes man's power. Will for life worthy He pur- 
poses that life find while it is man. Will for life 
worthy, then, life finally wins while it is man. But 
will free life may use unworthily. Why has life 
free will ? By God's purpose life wills for its worth 
as personal life. Free will He gives to life per- 
sonal. Will for life worthy life wins while it is 
man by God's purpose. All lives who will as men 
while they are men find that will. None wills for 
life unworthy for all life on earth. What then 
wills life's Maker for life of man? Will for life 
worthy that life finds itself. What food for 
thought I give you, O men. Think why I tell it; 
to help men who will freely to will well. May this 
word help many, I pray God. 

Will Higher, whose purpose that which He 
made fulfills, made life for earth man. Then man 



Will Higher Wills 191 

fulfills His will, though He made man free. 
Would man free will always as God wills then? 
Why was he made free? What help from free will 
were it forced to win worth? Man free wills that 
which Higher Will purposes, for the Will who 
made him free teaches him wise use of free will. 
God made life free, wills that life be finally taught 
wise use of free will while it is man. Then man 
who is life finally wins worth, freely willing, be- 
cause life is by Will Higher taught wise use of free 
will, and that which Higher Will purposes life 
taught fulfills of its own free will. 

Will Higher, who wills for that which He made 
forever, wills for life that He made life. His will 
governs that life while it is. His purpose that life 
fulfills. That which He wills life fulfills by the 
powers which He gives. Free will, free purpose 
He wills shall fulfill His purpose. His Purpose 
Omnipotent, His Will Omnipotent, all that He 
made fulfills. Higher Will of man's Maker who 
wills for life forever man, the life, fulfills. All 
that He made fulfills the Higher Will of God.

FINAL WORD 



FINAL WORD 

Dr. Coulter. 

WILL Higher, life's Wilier, made life 
for worth far wider than that which 
earth may bring. Man who lives 
earth life is personal self. Life who 
wins wider life remains personal self. Wide life 
becomes when freed from earth ; wider life becomes 
to eternity then. Man lives the little life purposed 
for life while it wins worth for wider life. Man 
prepares life for the higher life beyond earth. Will 
Higher wills for life worth high after earth; man 
cannot reach that worth; but man prepares life 
for the life wider which finds that worth. Think, 
who live man's life. Will Higher made you life, 
purposes for you life wider, made you free that 
you yourself win that life wider than earth through 
your own will and purpose. Think well then, man 
of life immortal, think well. 

Will Higher, who wills for life that by its own 
free will it win that worth which He purposes it 
shall find, Will Higher, who purposes for life while 

195 



196 Man, The Life Free 

it is, made life for earth man, made life for wider 
life than that of man, wills for life worth far 
greater than it may find while it wills as man. His 
purpose who made life the life fulfills. His will 
all life fulfills. Man, the life for whom Will 
Higher purposes worth for higher life, wins that 
worth which life has for must to find on earth using 
his free will. God wills that life while it wills as 
man find worth for life higher than man's life finds. 
But while life wills the will is free. God's purpose 
for life life fulfills of its own will. Life made life 
by God wins, using the will He makes its free 
power, the worth He purposes. Man, life immor- 
tal, wins by his wise use of free will the worth for 
higher life purposed for life personal when life was 
by Will Higher made. 

Man, who is life personal, wins worth for wider 
personal life by his free will. His worth, which is 
life's worth, wins for life the wider life purposed 
by God. While life wills as man He who purposes 
for life forever wills that it win worth for wider 
life. His will life fulfills forever. No life willed 
being by Him fails to win the worth that He wills 
it to find. Man, the life free, wills always as he 
wishes ; man, the life bound by God's purpose, wins 
finally of free will that life wider purposed for life 
personal when God made life. Free will made 
life's power by its Maker fulfills His wise purpose. 



Final Word 197 

Free will, God-willed power, man uses to win the 
worth of life on earth. That free will which God 
gives to life fulfills His purpose for life. Will for 
life worthy life finally finds while it is man. Will 
for life worthy, free will wisely and firmly used, 
wins for life personal the higher life purposed for 
it by God, its Maker. Wise life fulfills finally 
God's purpose. Wise life, freely willing its worth 
itself, wins the higher life which was from the will- 
ing of life purposed by God, life's Maker. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, purposed when He 
made life man that by free will life win the worth 
which fits it for wider life. But man wills for that 
worth which Higher Will purposes by his free will. 
Wise life becomes while it is man, for all lives win 
wider life. Fitted for earth, made life personal, 
life who perceives itself as life personal wins, by 
free will that Higher Will made its power, its 
worth. Wide life becomes when wise free will has 
won freedom from earth. But the will is still free. 
Wide life wills for the yet wider worth which Will 
Higher purposes, using always free will its own. 
Man, who first wills for life, who makes life worthy 
by his free choice, wills for life the worth which 
brings its first wider life. Then by man's free will 
life for whom Higher Will purposes wider life 
wins the first wider life. Full of meaning for men 
is the word I tell. Think upon it well, O man. 



198 Man, The Life Free 

Man, the life who wills for worth of free will, 
was willed his power, free will, hy his Maker. 
When by free will man makes his life worthy, the 
free will which man's Maker gives to man fulfills 
His purpose for life of man. When free will, then, 
man uses well, his life fulfills God's purpose for life 
on earth. That life will always of free will God 
wills ; that life win its worth of free will God wills. 
But the free will which finally fulfills God's pur- 
pose man uses unworthily many times. What wills 
life's Maker for that life who wills on earth un- 
worthily? Man's life again, which then is made 
penalty. Will free, then, wins for life worth for 
this happy, free, full life, or man's life again. 
Then will free fulfills God's will if the man thus 
chooses. For the man who to-day wills for life this< 
word will be help we hope. Think well, O man; 
we help you if you think well. Free, full, happy 
life will be won by every life immortal ; yet the man 
himself, free of will always, chooses when that life 
be won. Think then well, you who will for life im- 
mortal, think well. 

What purposes God for life? That for life wor- 
thy it will while it is man. But His purpose life 
fulfills when thus it chooses. For life worthy each 
life finally wills ; all lives finally choose to find will 
for life worthy. Will free, life's power, made free 
by life's Maker, fulfills His purpose for life. Man 



Final Word 199 

who wills for life worthy thus fulfills God's pur- 
pose. What food for thought for men this gives! 
Think upon it well, man who is life. Think what 
man finds by free will if thus he wishes — worth for 
freed life. Freed life wills for far wider worth 
than life on earth finds. Freed life wills of free 
will. All lives made by God fulfill as He pur- 
poses His will. Made free, willed life wider, 
each life wins of free will the worth for life 
wider. Help men to understand, we pray thee, 
O God. 

Will Higher, life's Wilier, man's Maker, was 
when life whom He willed was not. He wills for 
the life whom He made wide life beyond the little 
life of earth, wide, full, worthy life, firm life, will- 
ing for worth always ; this for life wills its Maker, 
God. What for life on earth wills its Maker ? 
Worth finally, will firm for life worthy finally. 
What follows life on earth? Freed life, freed life 
won through man's will used firmly and well; for 
life of man He wills this future. Think then, man 
who wills this time for life on earth. His purpose 
who made your life will be fulfilled. Why fail to 
fulfill that purpose this time on earth? That free 
will which He gives fulfills His purpose, but only 
when free will has won the firm life which God 
purposes does He free life from man. Then, you 
who will for life, think. Why let purpose fail? 



200 Man, The Life Free 

For life worthy purpose firmly always. Thus win 
this fuller, worthier, happier life. 

Will Higher wills for life whom He made worth 
for wider life than that of earths Will Higher 
wills for life whom He made worth for His pres- 
ence finally. That worth will be found by life free 
to will as it wishes. But free will beyond man's 
life is firm for life worthy. Then will which life 
may use worthily or unworthily is worthily used 
when life has won freed life? Yes, life wills for 
life worthy firmly then. But will for life worthy 
is free will still. What is freed life? Men would 
but partly understand were we to try to tell. Freed 
life is wider life, the Universe its working-place. 
Freed life wills for wider life than that which it 
had while it was man. For life worthy freed life 
wills firmly, yet uses free will. For life worthy 
freed life purposes firmly, yet purpose is free. 
Man wins that firm purpose by which life wins its 
wider worth, and while life is man on earth that 
firm purpose will be won. For life while it wins 
that worth which its Maker purposes the will and 
purpose will forever be free, yet life wills for life 
worthy when freed. What for life wills its Maker ? 
Worth won always of free will; worth finally for 
His presence won of free will. Will free wins life's 
worth forever; will firm, free will made firm while 
life is man, free will which life's Maker wills to 



Final Word 201 

be life's power forever, wins life's worth forever. 

Man, the personal life, wills that which he 
wishes ; man, the life purposed worth by God, wins 
finally the worth which God wills that he find. 
Man who is life personal wills by personal free will; 
man, the life bound by Higher Will, wills finally 
that which Higher Will purposes. Will free, then, 
wins for life the worth purposed by life's Maker. 
Will worthy life finds finally, taught by the life 
which God wills to be teaching, the life of man on 
earth. Then man who wills that which he wishes, 
when life is taught by the purposed life on earth 
wins by free will, and of free choice, that worth 
which God purposes that life find on earth. Will 
Higher wills; the life whom He made free ful- 
fills His purpose. 

Will Higher, God who made the Universe, Will 
Higher, God who willed life its being, Will Higher, 
God who governs all that He willed being, was 
when all that is the Universe was not. He Om- 
nipotent, Omnipresent, Will who wills for life for- 
ever, Will who purposes for life while He wills it 
to be life, Will who made life man, He wills for 
life while it is man, while it is. Man, His creature, 
wills with the will He gives; man purposes with 
the purpose He gives; man, finite life, fulfills by 
finite will and purpose His Omnipotent purpose; 
man, finite life, wins by his free purpose the wider 



202 Man, The Life Free 

finite life which He who made life purposes. While 
life is God wills for it; while life is God purposes 
for it; while life is life fulfills His purpose. Will 
Higher, Will of Omnipotent God, rules all that is 
forever. 

Wilberforce. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, purposes for life 
while it is. His purpose life which He made ful- 
fills. He wills for life worth for wider life. Life 
worthy of man wins that wider life. Man, who 
wills of free will, himself wins that worth which 
brings wider life. Help men to understand our 
word, we pray thee, O God. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life worth 
won by life's free will. No free life would win 
forced worth. God makes life free; His will life 
free fulfills. Using free will life wins that worth 
which Will Higher purposed when He made life. 
Will free that He wills to life fulfills His purpose 
for life. Will free, life's power, wins life's worth 
forever. Will for life worthy, free will well and 
wisely used, wins life's wider, fuller life. Think, 
man who is life, think well. 

Will Higher, man's Maker, purposes for life 
wider life than that of man. Wide life begins when 
life by firm purpose its own has won freedom. 
Wide life won, life wins yet wider, fuller, worthier 



Final Word 203 

life. But what frees life from earth? Man's free 
purpose firmly used for life worthy. Then, man 
who wills for life, think well, think wisely. What 
frees life from earth? Man's firm purpose. What 
wins yet wider life? The purpose made firm for 
life worthy by man. Think well, you who would 
win that higher life. Wide life becomes when life 
by man's firm purpose has won freedom; high life 
becomes when purpose firm has been found; that 
high life which God purposes, wide life full of 
worth, begins when by man's firm purpose life 
frees itself. Think well, man who is life, think 
well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, who for life purposes 
forever, wills for life far wider life than that of 
man. What purposes He for life? Worth high, 
worth great, worth for His presence finally. Will 
free must make life worthy high life ; will free must 
make life worthy great life; will free must make 
life worthy its Maker's presence. Think then, 
while life wills this time, that life find worth for 
high life. Think while life is man for life wider. 
Think now for life well. What life finds worth 
for higher, greater, worthier life? This life finds 
that worth finally. But this life wins its worth it- 
self, this life wins its worth using free will. Then 
how has this life willed for life this time, well or 
ill? This life wins freedom willing well, wins life 



204 Man, The Life Free 

on earth again willing ill. Then think, man who 
is life, think well. 

Will Higher, will of Him who wills for life for- 
ever, Will that all His Universe fulfills, Will of 
Omnipotent God, made life man. What purposes 
life's Maker for that life? Wide, full, happy life, 
firm life, full of firm will and purpose, full with 
worth He purposes. Then life who wills on earth 
wins that wide life which its Maker purposes. But 
life wills of free will, worth of life free is won by 
free will. Then He who made life free wills that 
by free will life fulfill His purpose. No life but 
finds by free will that worth which God purposes; 
yet life wills always by free will. Man, the life 
on earth, wins his worth of free will ; life wider wins 
its worth by free will. No life fails to find free 
will the help which God purposes it shall be. When 
free life wills for life worthy firmly, then God 
wills for it wide life, full life, firm purpose for life 
worthy while life is. Man who is life to-day, think 
well. 

Will Higher, who wills for the life whom He 
made forever, Will Higher, who purposes for that 
life while it is, wills for that life wider life than 
that of man, wills for that life far wider worth than 
that which man finds. What purposes He for life? 
Wider life, fuller life, far greater life than that 
of earth. Wise life becomes while it wills for that 



Final Word 205 

wider worth which God purposes. Wide life be- 
comes when it has won freedom from earth. Wide 
life finds yet wider life willing for its worth by free 
will. Wide life wins far wider life than life may 
understand till God frees it from man. Wide life, 
willing for worth freely, wins that far greater 
worth which God purposes. Man wins by his free 
will the first wider life. Life freed then wins the 
wider worth which God purposes using for life 
worthy its free will. All lives win that worth 
which God purposes ; none fails to win that worth. 
Freed life, willing for life worthy itself, fulfills, 
as life of man fulfills, God's wise purpose. No life 
can fail to win that life wider, that worth far 
greater than that of man. All lives finally win 
that worth which fits life for its Maker's presence. 
That will which God gives, free will, wins for life 
that wider life, that far greater worth, which Will 
Higher purposed when He made life. Glorious 
thought for men! Wide life begins when man has 
won for his life freedom. 

Think well, man who wills for life to-day. When 
by will your own, free will, you win life worthy, 
you win for life wider life. Think well, O man. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life this 
higher life when free will, life's free power, has 
made life worthy life higher. Will for life worthy 
then, man who is life, will for worthy life this time 



206 Man, The Life Free 

while you will as man. This time will firm wins 
freedom if this man purposes firmly. Wide life 
begins then, full, happy, free life. Well for men 
to think what life finds of firm purpose well and 
wisely used, — this full, happy, free life. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life wider, fuller 
life than that of earth, makes life free, wills that 
life by free will find worth for the wider life which 
He purposes. His will that which He made ful- 
fills. All lives made by Him win the wider life. 
Will free of life man uses. That will life has by 
the purpose of God. That will, free always, wins 
for life the worth for the wider life purposed by 
God when He willed life into being. 

Then this life who is man will find the worth for 
wider, fuller life, but this life finds that worth by 
free will wisely and firmly used. Will free, the 
will which this man has, will free, the will which 
this life uses well or ill as this man wishes, wins 
finally that worth which God purposes. And the 
will which you, the man, now use must win for you, 
the life, that which wins wider, fuller, happier life. 
Think well, man who wills for life to-day, think 
well. 

Will Higher, will of Him who wills for all that 
He made, wills for life of man worth that brings 
wider, higher life. - Worth willed by Him life wins 
using its own free will. Worth which life finds 



Final Word 207 

freely willing for life worthy itself wins for life 
the higher life purposed by God, life's Maker. 
Well for life purposes He. Man, the life personal, 
He makes free; will of personal life fulfills God's 
purpose for personal life; when by personal free 
will life wins that worth which He purposes, He 
frees that life from earth. Wise the life becomes 
working the work which He wills to be teaching. 
No life fails to learn the firm purpose which wins 
life wider. Have we made you understand, who 
read? Will free, man's own will, wins that worth 
which Will Higher wills that life find. When by 
free will life becomes worthy wider life, God frees 
the life from earth. Have you who will for life 
won that worth? Think well, man who is life, 
think well. 

Miltiades. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, Will who purposes 
for life while it is, made life for earth man. Will 
Higher purposes for life while it is man; Will 
Higher purposes for life forever. The life made 
by Him fulfills His purpose. Man then, who wills 
of free will, fulfills the Higher Will for life made 
man. Man who wills for his worth himself, since 
Will Higher made life free, fulfills that Higher 
Purpose who wills that life find worth on earth. 
That purpose which God wills to be life's power, 



208 Man, The Life Free 

free purpose, fulfills for life God's purpose. Man 
who is life, man who wills for worth when he thus 
wishes, is life who fulfills God's purposes. Man 
then, life on earth, wins by his free purpose the 
worth which God purposed for life on earth when 
He made life. 

Will Higher, who purposes for life that it find 
worth for life higher willing its worth by free will, 
made life personal self whose power, will, He made 
free. When by free will life wins that worth which 
Higher Will purposes, life wins wider life. Then 
life itself wins that freedom which Higher Will 
purposes for it. Life's free will, made life's power 
by life's Maker, fulfills His purpose. When by 
free will life makes itself worthy freedom, life wins 
that wider life purposed by God when life was by 
Him made. Will free of life, will free made life's 
power by Will Higher, fulfills for life the purpose 
of its Maker. When by wise free will life wins this 
life it is freed from earth forever, freed from weak 
purpose forever. Wise life frees itself then? Yes, 
for life by God's purpose wills that worth which 
brings freedom. Wise the man who, firmly will- 
ing, makes his life worthy. Thus he wins for his 
life immortal wider, fuller, happier life. Man who 
wills for life, think. 

Will Higher purposes for life worth far wider 
than that which it finds as man. He purposes for 



Final Word 209 

life worth far wider than life on earth may find. 
When by life's free will that worth which He pur- 
poses for life on earth is won, He translates life 
to wider, fuller life. His will life to whom He wills 
free will fulfills of free will. His purpose for life 
to whom He wills free purpose free purpose ful- 
fills. Man, life free, by free will and purpose ful- 
fills His purpose for life on earth. Then life who 
wills to-day fulfills of free will His purpose. What 
has life from Him for help? Work that teaches 
wise free will and purpose. What for life free 
purposes He? Wider life won by its free will and 
purpose. Then the life who wills as man to-day 
may, if this man wishes, fulfill His purpose that 
personal life, immortal life, find worth for higher 
life. Think, who will for life this time on earth, 
think well. 

Will Higher who is life's Maker, Will Higher 
who purposes for the life whom He made, wills 
that life find wider life. His purpose life fulfills 
forever. But free life neglects its duty many 
times; free life wills for unworthiness perhaps. 
Then Will Higher penalizes life. What penalty 
imposes He upon life who neglects its duty? What 
penalty imposes He upon life who wills for unwor- 
thiness? Work of life on earth again. This life 
works the work purposed for life who wills well. 
For life who wills for unworthiness, life of man 



210 Man, The Life Free 

again, work of man again. What is the work which 
man has? Work purposed to teach wise, firm will 
and purpose. When life finds wise will and pur- 
pose Will Higher frees that life from work and life 
of earth. When life wins the worth which God 
purposes, freely willing, freely purposing, God 
wills for that life, wider, fuller life. Think then, 
man who is life, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life which 
He made wide life, full life, happy life, when man 
by his free will and purpose makes life worthy 
wider life. Will Higher purposes that life free it- 
self from earth. Man then, life of personal self, 
wills when that life win freedom from earth. Think 
what I tell, man who is life immortal. Win this 
life the life may this time; but win it life must by 
man's life worthy. That higher life which God 
purposes for immortal personal self will, and must 
be won by man. Think, man who wills for life 
to-day, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for the life 
whom He made forever. His will all that He 
willed being obeys. The firm purpose which he 
wills that life find on earth life finds ; the firm free 
purpose which life has when freed life wins of its 
own free will; yet God purposes that life find firm 
purpose on earth. Man wills for his worth himself, 
yet God wills that life of man find worth. His will 



Final Word 211 

life of man obeys. That life win freedom willing 
its worth itself He purposes. Then man who wills 
firmly that his life be worthy wins for personal life 
the wider life which God purposes. His free will 
wins that worth which fits life for higher life. 
Think then, man who is life, think well. That you 
who use free will use it well finally God purposes; 
yet you are free. Why let weak will hold your 
life to earth? 

Higher life God wills for life who is on earth 
man. Wider, fuller, happier life He wills for self 
of man. His will life fulfills as He wills, by wise 
use of personal free will. His purpose life fulfills 
by the way He wills, wise use of personal purpose. 
Man, life personal, wills his worth himself, though 
that worth is by God purposed. This life who is 
man to-day will win the worth which God pur- 
poses, and this life will win it choosing worth itself. 
But this life to-day wills unworthily. Will this 
life win freedom this time then? Not till will free 
is used firmly for worth is life freed. Man who 
is life, think. Think what this life may find, you 
willing firmly and well. Freed life, wide life, full 
life, happy life, life firm forever too, will this life 
find if you, the man, find firm will and purpose. 
Think well, then, man who is life, think well. 

Purpose Higher, purpose of Him who made life 
free, follows life while it is. Will free life is given 



212 Man, The Life Free 

by Him; will free fulfills His purpose; will free 
win's life's worth while it purposes on earth and 
forever; will free, man's power, life's power too, 
wins for life the worth for first wider life; will 
free, life's power, wins the wider worth which God 
purposes ; will free given to life by its Maker, God, 
fulfills while life is God's purpose. Man who wills 
this time for life on earth, will free, your free will, 
wins that wider worth finally. For will firm pur- 
pose then always, for by free will firmly used for 
life worthy must, and will finally, that life who is 
you to-day win its first wider life, and its worth 
while it is. Life free wins wider life. Will life 
of this man win wider life? Surely, but when this 
life determines of free choice. When by your free 
will you win life wider you enter upon glorious, 
happy life. Think then, O man, think well. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, will of Him who is 
Omnipotent God, wills for life forever. Worth 
won by free will He wills that life find. Worth 
which wins for life this wider life He wills; worth 
for His presence finally He wills that life find. 
But will of life is free. Then that worth which God 
wills for life life finds by free will its own. Life 
personal, life free, finally of free will wins wider 
life. Life immortal wins of free will worth to 
immortality. What wills life's Maker? That life 



Final Word 213 

forever will of free will ; that life find finally worth 
for His presence. That will which Will Higher 
makes life's power, free will of personal self, wins 
that worth which fits life for its Maker's presence. 
What food for thought we give you, O men. Think 
what God wills for you, man who wills for life 
to-day. Think how you find worth of life. By 
your own free will you find it. By your own will 
life finds freedom. By will free life wins worth for 
its Maker's presence. You who will for life to-day 
win finally that worth. But for this life of man you 
will weakly perhaps. Then Will Higher purposes 
for you further work of man. Think well, who 
would win freedom. You win it firmly purposing 
worth yourself; you win this life when by man's 
life worthy you make life personal fit for this life. 
Think well, O man. 

Will Higher, life's Maker, wills for life that it 
win wider life through the life of man on earth. 
That thought men need, for too often they think 
for life of earth only. That thought which helps 
life of man we tell that men may win this life more 
quickly. Full of meaning for men is the word 
this life tells for help. Word full of help men will 
find it if they think well. This life, won while life 
is man, this life full of happy purpose, the man 
who lives now may win. Then think well, O men.
